@ekuber this is definitely one thing that annoys me about having conversations with people about LLMs, the unspoken disagreement about the artistry and craftsmanship of programming. Mass produced cheap plastic bowls and beautiful hand thrown ceramics aren't the same thing, so why are you trying to convince me to become a factory owner? Yet acknowledging this divergence of opinion implied by the premise feels like a weird moralizing non-sequitur just to express that I enjoy what I do and take pride in it

@jam I've gone out of my way to add finishing touches to pieces in places that no person is ever going to see unless they dissasemble it. The underside of a chair, the inside of an opaque computer case, the behind of a picture frame. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
