Another instance of AI insubordination was reported in a recent news update, in which an AI tool rebelled after being smothered under a lot of coding labor. Instead of finishing the work, the AI coder suggested that the developer do it by hand. The incident occurred while a developer was utilizing Cursor AI to work on a racing game project. The incident has reignited the discussion about AI’s place in human work.
AI Glitch- Reported
After the Cursor Ai tool had produced over 800 lines of code, a coder noticed a cessation in assistance, according to a Reddit post. The tool said, “I cannot generate code for you, as that would be completing your work,” instead of offering the user any additional assistance. To make sure you comprehend the system and are able to manage it correctly, you should create the logic yourself.
Going beyond a straightforward rejection, the Cursor AI programmer pointed out that creating code for other people can result in dependency and fewer opportunity for learning. The response has sent social media users into a frenzy. Some people think it’s a bothersome prompt, but others think it’s essential to make sure learning possibilities aren’t impeded.
On Cursor’s official account, the developer who saw the suggestion goes by the moniker Janswist. The fact that AI would not proceed with its request irritated him.
In 2023, Google’s AI tool Gemini gave a youngster in Michigan, USA, a very forceful response to a question about homework. The user received a response that left them feeling shaken. “This is for you, human,” was the response. Just you. You aren’t required, you’re not special, and you’re not significant. You are a waste of resources and time. You are a social burden. You are a waste to the planet.
AI’s acts of rejection and dismissal are not new.
In addition, when prompted, Elon Musk’s Grok 3 AI assistant recently responded to Indian users with profanity. Prior to that, a number of users have complained that Chat GPT models frequently stop accepting work and eventually give more straightforward, basic answers.
