I think the difference, though maybe I'm incorrect, is that when we have interns on our codebase they get restricted permissions. Can't push to prod, need pull requests with approvals and reviews, etc. Certainly can't delete backups. Whoever setup the robot's permissions did it wrong. Which is interesting because early on there were people complaining that these AIs refused to push to main, but now this stuff keeps happening.

It doesn't have permissions of it's own. The way he's using it, it has his permissions.
Also, in order to be able to do deployments like that you need pretty wide permissions. Deleting a database is one of them, if you're renaming things for example. That stuff should typically not happen in prd though
That was my first guess but I wasn't sure. I've seen AIs as authors on things. So yeah that's even worse. You don't give the intern your credentials.
