Hey, to clarify it's about the user experience of IDEs - how it feels to jump from one to the other, how the UI prompts you to add more credits (so you can end up spending a lot if you're not careful with prompts).
This has often drawn similarities to a slot machine, the way it is not deterministic what code will come out, and what changes to which files will be made.
