Ah, yes. Ask Grok to come up with a secure password that only you and everyone else know.
I do wonder how many people have copied config files to diagnose issues into Grok/other AIs not remembering they had IP addresses, certificate security information, or maybe even server credentials
I watched someone vibe code a curl request with grok and it spat out an api key in the configuration completely unprompted. It wasn’t an active one unfortunately (that would’ve been so funny) but I could totally see this happening
