We had one "field operations" guy get access to the company cloud infrastructure and he was all proud of the dashboard he "wrote" via ChatGPT. All the execs were oooh-ing and aaaah-ing about it.

The next month when the cloud services bill came it turned his dashboard was effectively doing "select * from..." on the entire data warehouse every time anyone clicked anything. Fucking whoops.

And the only reason he had that access is that he's a childhood friend of one of the owners. So when the dev team started catching hell for the cost they just forwarded the email chains that basically said "I know so-and-so, if you don't give me this access you'll be looking for a job".
