I'm certainly impressed by a man that can dig a tunnel with a spoon. But you're definitely right that it's not that useful.

But I disagree that half assed work is not useful. It's just lower usefulness. My laundry app isn't even half assed. The programmers couldn't even sort the room list (literal random order) or cache your most recent room. It's still better than the BS system they had before where I had to load a prepaid card and that machine was locked in a building that isn't open on weekends or after 6pm. I'm still immensely frustrated, but I don't want to go back to the old system.

Though I'll mention that my fear is that because so many people see LLMs as having far more utility than they offer, we'll get more shit like the above instead of higher quality stuff. Most issues are solved for me to be comfortable in my life, so I definitely value quality a lot more. Plus, reduces a lot of mental stress as I'm not thinking "how can the person that made this be so dumb? How do you learn how to program and not know what sort is?"
