When software mangles data this badly, it is considered garbage and scrapped.

But if it is a half decent chatbot and has the label "AI", it gets another iteration with 10x the resources. This has happened a few times already.

It is a neat tool. It is very unreliable. Teams saying "just give us 10x as much resources so we can insist on this approach" is the hateful thing here.

I don't see the appeal of tooling that shields you from learning the admittedly annoying and largely accidental) complexity in developing software.

It can only make accidental complexity grow and people's understanding diminish.

When the inevitable problems become apparent, and you claim people should have understood better. Maybe using the tool that let's you avoid understanding things was a bad idea...

"This tech works fine as long as you have a back up for when it frequently fails"

Inflation is the answer. It never went away. It just got disguised as labor exploitation and quality decline. And now it's back. We will get the worst of two worlds now. Inflation rising and low quality, highly polluting, exploitative industry.

Us FORTH and LISP hackers will be doing free range code forever.

We can use cheap hardware that can be fixed with soldering irons and oscilloscopes.

People said for decades our projects just become weird DSLs. And now whatever little thing I want to do in any mainstream language involves learning some weird library DSL.

And now people be needing 24h GPU farm access to handle code.

In 50 years my grandkids that wish to will be able to build, repair and program computers with a garage workbench and old wrinkled books. I know most of the software economy will end up in the hands of major corporations capable of paying through the nose for black box low code solutions.

Doesn't matter. Knowledge will set you free if you know where to look.
