Someone actually ran it on a server at my workplace, trying to fix file permissions on a samba share. Broke SSH and the samba daemon. Thankfully I was able to fix by removing the permissions from the config files the error logs pointed to.

Just saying, I think it was a ChatGPT idea, other people use it every day. I only use it if I'm completely stumped, and only take it as suggestions.
