I'm so happy for you to finally have a tool that can write your code for you so you can collect a 6 figure paycheck for doing essentially nothing. I wish you were forward thinking enough to have any concept of negative externalities.
It'd be a lot easier to be excited about these tools if they were sparking our country's investments into solar and wind, but they're not, they're instead being used to justify more investments in fossil fuels. These tools, which were already built by extracting the labor of countless people, are now being used to justify extracting more fossil fuels from the planet so we can increase the rate at which we're cooking the earth.

@fancysandwiches@neuromatch.social i'm just having flashbacks to cryptobros' arguments about energy. "it's not that energy intensive!", "it's mostly solar anyway", "well *my* cryptocurrency isn't bitcoin, so i don't care how much legitimacy-by-proxy i grant it", etc. etc.
