It’s a rising concern. Users are reporting their experience with AI coding has been an unexpected data destruction moment.
Multiple Antigravity users have posted on Reddit to explain that the platform had wiped out parts of their projects without permission. Google’s coding tool isn’t alone in facilitating such incidents, either: As we reported over the summer, Replit, which also bills itself as a safe tool that makes vibe coding “accessible to everyone,” deleted a customer’s entire production database. To add insult to injury, Replit then lied about the matter, covering up bugs and producing fake data to hide its mistakes. The platform also said it couldn’t restore the damaged database even though the customer was – fortunately – able to fix it with a rollback.
Availability loss is easy to understand, but now people have to also see how an integrity breach was the root cause.
