I disagree. Much time is wasted making syntax errors. AI doesn't make syntax errors. I expect there was similar resentment when high level languages took over from assembler.

So you work, you earn money, you pay tax on it, and with whats left you invest because there is no interest on savings, and then you are taxed on that. You borrow to buy a house because it is cheaper than renting, then they tax that, then you have to sell it to pay for your care. #greens #economics #MovingTheGoalPosts

That looks like a screen editor, not a line editor. Is CLI the right way to describe it?

I stopped reading at "poor understanding of programming", you will have to do better than that, this isn't twitter.

I expect you could have made these arguments against compilers in the early days. Should we check the machine code that comes out of gcc? or write it ourselves? I've used ChatGPT to write small programs in languages that I am not familiar with, and it is much easier than learning the language and its syntax. I can understand the output and see whether the logic is correct.

Is any of that information actually private?
