There’s a lot of people posting Questions to StackOverflow either admitting to first asking ChatGPT how a piece of code works… and then not understanding what it says and so then posting to SO; - I can’t fault kids for doing that, at least they at least did some self-directed research.

But the worst are people that post answers generated by ChatGPT.
