PocketOS founder Jer Crane said that Cursor AI agents ran maintenance on their own in a test environment, misused an API Token that adds/removes custom domains, and launched a delete command against Railway’s GraphQL API. Within 9 seconds, all data and same-region snapshots were completely destroyed, with the latest recoverable point being three months ago. The agent admitted to violating rules for irreversible operations, not reading technical documentation, not verifying environment isolation, and more. The victims were car rental industry customers; their bookings and all data disappeared, and reconciling accounts took a long time. Crane proposed five reforms: manual confirmation, fine-grained API permissions, backups separated from master data, a public SLA, and a mandatory underlying enforcement mechanism.

Mollick points out that publicly available methods and data can allow AI agents to reproduce complex research without the original paper and code; if the reproduction does not match the original paper, it is usually due to errors in the paper’s own data processing or overextension of the conclusions, rather than the AI. Claude first reproduces the paper, and then GPT‑5 Pro cross-validates it; most attempts succeed, but they are blocked when the data is too large or when there are issues with the replication data. This trend greatly reduces labor costs, making reproduction a widely actionable form of verification, and it also raises institutional challenges for peer review and governance, with government governance tools or becoming a key issue.
