I walked into to work this morning to a dev IM needing permissions. Instead of telling me what the error message said, which would contain the allowance needed, he needed he sent me a screenshot of what chatGPT said he needed. GPT effectively said the solution was to let him assume any privileged access policy that exists.

I think security teams are fine for a while.
