I can see the value, but to do the things you're describing, the AI needs to be given fairly highly-privileged credentials.

These statements directly conflict with one another.

So it needs "iam:CreateRole," "iam:AttachPolicy," and other similar permissions. Those are not "read-only." And, they make it effectively admin in the account.

What safeguards are in place to make sure it doesn't delete other roles, or make production-impacting changes?
