It's garbage software with zero practical use.

AI is responsible for a lot of slop but it is wrong to say it has no use. I helped my wife with a VBScript macro for Excel. There was no way I was going to learn VBScript. Chatgpt spit out a somewhat working script in minutes that needed 15 minutes of tweaking. The alternative would have been weeks of work learning a proprietary Microsoft language. That's a waste of time.

    Okay fine. You can vibe code. Got anything else?

    I stand by my statement.

    Using an AI to write an argument in favor of AI? Please. Debate us like a real human. You're not a bot. I'm not a bot. Act like it.

    Wife uses it all the time as a grammar checker on steroids. It tweaks her emails to be more "management speak" that makes the corporate executives very happy. It gives her more time to spend on equations instead of explaining things to upper management.
