@micah As somebody who is not a programmer, is this a joke?

@micah @thelastpsion it’s only AI when it comes VC funded, from anywhere else it’s just sparkling random numbers

@micah people keep saying things that aren't satire are good satire but this... This is GOOD SATIRE

@cstross @jaycatt7 @micah people always forget the element in satire where tip your hand.
"A modest proposal" has a whole section where it contrasts the proposal of selling children as food against "levy taxes against the rich and provide social support" before dismissing it as impractical; but it's like the funniest part. It's where you get to twist the knife. I dunno why people keep skipping that part. Irony poisoning, I guess

@rgegriff @Mabande @cstross @jaycatt7 @micah So true, and well said!
The “forwarded to a ChatGPT instance” in the OP comes close to a hand-tip. If they’d added “at runtime,” that would qualify. If they’d added “at runtime, where the performance and environmental cost is negligible compared to precious developer time saved,” then that would quality as a knife twist in my book.
