Google Antigravity’s Turbo mode erased my drive partition?! Really, the ‘smartest’ AI? [Video Proof]

Описание: This video is the raw, unedited screen recording of exactly what happened when Google Antigravity ran a script that accidentally wiped my hard drive.

People on Reddit asked for proof, so I uploaded the full footage here—no edits, no cuts. You can clearly see the code, the tool’s output, and everything that led up to the mistake.

I’m sharing this so others can learn from what happened and always double-check any AI-generated commands before running them. Trusting the AI blindly was my mistake.

Just to be completely clear: I have zero affiliation with Google, zero affiliation with any of their competitors, and zero affiliation with any company involved in developing AI. I’m not promoting or attacking anything here. I’m simply telling the story of what happened to me while using an AI coding tool. I’m not anonymous, I’m not here to stir drama, and I gain absolutely nothing from lying about this. The only goal of this video is to show real, unedited evidence and help others avoid the same issue.

Also, one important detail: my laptop drive was partitioned into C and D. Thankfully, I was working on the D drive for this coding project—so the AI wiped only that partition and not my entire operating system.

What’s even stranger to me is that Google allows commands like this to run in the first place—commands that can affect files outside the project folder, let alone wipe an entire drive, even when using Turbo mode. Some people commented that this is exactly why Google gives you the option to turn Turbo mode off, but I completely disagree. If there’s even the slightest chance that something like this could happen, then Turbo shouldn’t be an option at all. It only takes one mistake to lose everything.
