    also just a reminder there was a big password breach with instagram/meta/whatever because people asked an AI agent to give them the passwords for famous peoples accounts.

    That’s misleading, accounts have been taken over but passwords have not been leaked (how would that even be possible?)

      They got the ai agent to send the password reset onetime code to a new address that they supplied through the chat.

      Effectively hijacking the pw reset and its safeguard. The users password did not need to be known
