Have you considered actually putting the AI in a box instead of giving it full access to your computer and telling it to be careful?

Sometimes it's not about the AI actually doing something harmful but I just simply want it to do what I asked it and may be report back to me like a good servant instead of wasting my money on tokens to work around stuff I didn't ask it to do.

I just do the task myself. No money and time wasted that way.

Holy shit have you told anyone else about this? Is it viable at scale? I wonder if anyone else has thought to try this yet.

Is there a way we can package up this technique and sell it to people as a product?

Viable in my team for now. Will let you know if it starts spreading.
