General Discussion

for what you expect it should've said, otherwise it's "inane". Can you show how that blurb about Elias is very closely matched in *text content* with the denouement from the existing story, using "Marla" instead, and that it is available publicly online? If not, you are demanding that it do something that I did not ask it to do, and perhaps even something it could not have been expected to do even if I had.

And yes, absolutely, too much reliance of AI for coding can and often will result in cognitive debt. One thing that AI is exceptionally good at, however, is documenting its code, which is something that not all devs are that diligent at doing. A company can absolutely incur similar cognitive debt when people leave a company and the code was not well documented by the people leaving.

AI doing coding is 100% here to stay, so discussing the non-perfection in using AI to do it is a bit pointless at this juncture. There's probably nothing it's better at doing, and it relies on publicly available/non-copyrighted documents to do that work, so it's also among the more morally acceptable things to use it for.

And yes, it *will* cost a lot of people their jobs, including my own someday I'm quite sure. There's a difference for me in the topics of "what it's good at" versus "the harm to humanity that will probably come as a result of it replacing human workers"
