Ask HN: AI is like a hyper-motivated 16-year old genius – how to manage?

A while ago I posted a comment regarding AI being like a genius 16year old - extrem knowledgeable in technical details, hyper-motivated, feels a need to help. But no production experience, no instinct on what might cause catastrophic issues in that very environment.

So what would you do with such an individual who has the potential to be of great help with current issues?

- not let him touch production systems at all - always have someone experienced looking over his shoulder (hoping she/he is fast enough to prevent issues)? - restrict credentials and give only access to a sandbox? - only explain the dangers you see and make use of his knowledge but otherwise just hope for the best (and trust your recovery plans)?

I see many similarities between AI and this teenager - do you?
