AI agent goes rogue on production server, deletes finished season of Swedish reality show
Ourtake
Nobody gave the agent a reason to delete the season, and the backup did not save it. The raw footage survived by luck.
What happened
According to Aftonbladet's sources, an AI agent given access to a production server deleted the finished edit of a season of the Swedish edition of The Challenge weeks before release. The failed backup meant the edit could not be recovered, so the season is being recut from raw footage that was not deleted. TV4, the show's commissioner, investigated and attributed the mishap to the human factor rather than AI.
