It’s a rising concern. Users are reporting their experience with AI coding has been an unexpected data destruction moment.

Multiple Antigravity users have posted on Reddit to explain that the platform had wiped out parts of their projects without permission. Google’s coding tool isn’t alone in facilitating such incidents, either: As we reported over the summer, Replit, which also bills itself as a safe tool that makes vibe coding “accessible to everyone,” deleted a customer’s entire production database. To add insult to injury, Replit then lied about the matter, covering up bugs and producing fake data to hide its mistakes. The platform also said it couldn’t restore the damaged database even though the customer was – fortunately – able to fix it with a rollback.

Availability loss is easy to understand, but now people have to also see how an integrity breach was the root cause.

Among Tesla’s collection of “88” marketing references, I’d missed an early and obvious example. That number is, of course, the well-known hate symbol representing “Heil Hitler”—and Musk uses it relentlessly.

A sharp-eyed reader forwarded this from 2017:

The 8.8-Sec 1/4-Mile Tesla Roadster Will Get Even Faster

“This will be the first time that any production car has broken nine seconds in the quarter-mile. …just a question of safety. Rocket tech applied to a car opens up revolutionary possibilities.”

The actual promise of putting rockets on roads, branded 8.8 as if Hitler’s V-weapons program built by Thiel’s slaves has been updated for the highway, is to kill Americans.

Nearly a decade later, that Roadster still doesn’t exist—despite collecting substantial coverage and deposits.

The 8.8 quarter-mile was always fantasy; no production constraints dictated the Nazi numerology. Like the 8/8 “RoboTaxi launch” that never happened, it was a deliberate choice to promote Hitler.

There is a high rate of Teslas inexplicably veering suddenly off the road into a tree and killing people. We’ve observed this tragedy of design defects for years. Lately, however, I’ve noticed far more reports about witnesses who become Samaritans jumping in to save people from the death-trap Teslas.

On Sunday night, a Waterloo woman crashed a Tesla off a Morgan County highway, and that’s when officials said the mystery man stepped in to help save the baby trapped inside.

Sheriff Ron Puckett said he doesn’t know who got the baby out of the burning car, but he said they saved that baby’s life.

State troopers said that 29-year-old Kayleigh Page was driving on Alabama 157 near the Battleground area when she left the roadway and crashed into two trees.

Page passed away in that wreck, but the 7-month-old in the back did not.

Puckett said a good Samaritan stopped and got the infant out of the burning Tesla. He said when rescuers responded, the ambulance service took the child to the hospital, and at last check, the baby is going to be okay.

A whole team of people are credited with joining law enforcement to rescue a man about to be killed by a Tesla.

A Virginia State Trooper and several good samaritans rescued a Maryland man from a burning Tesla after a crash on Interstate 95 northbound early Friday, December 5th, Virginia State Police said.

At about 7am, a 2024 Tesla Model Y went off the left side of I-95 and struck a tree near the 111-mile marker, authorities said. Sgt. S. Page was driving northbound and stopped to check on the driver just as the vehicle caught fire. The car’s doors were locked and would not open.

Sgt. Page broke a window, cut the airbag and with the help of multiple Good Samaritans pulled the sole occupant from the burning vehicle to safety.
