@clacke @zensoup I agree with all that, as well as the original point that less is more - the goal isn't to write a lot of code, it's to write *just enough* code to accomplish a task. I just don't like the tendency to frame everything in commerce terms. Harvard MBAs do that, and they deserve the blame for a lot of today's ills.

A Colombian judge used chatGPT in a ruling.So chatGPT makes up answers out of thin air, those answers become part of public record, search engines index them, then you're done: no longer able to search for factual answers to questions.
