I think this is the first instance of AI misalignment that has truly left me with a sense of lingering dread. Even if the owner of MJ Rathbun was steering the agent behind the scenes to act the way that it did, the results are still the same, and instances similar to what happened to Scott are bound to happen more frequently as 2026 progresses.
