alt Hacker NewsI swear I heard this exact story some 2-3 weeks ago.
If I recall that story correctly, a dev noticed that after asking Claude to test an API it started injecting his email into the test data. Without asking.
But what was the weirdest part of that story - Claude never saw that email. Dev claimed that the email Claude was using was his business email, and it wasn't even present on his developer machine anywhere.
You did. This issue has come up every few weeks for months. On 25th October Boris Cherney was tagged multiple times in a discussion on Threads where he’s regularly active.
