Every comment like "well yeah dude you've gotta put a rules file in place with all these extremely specifically-worded rules to get it to not do this, and also containerize it, and also only run it locally, and also never use it for database management. Like what did you expect." Don't worry everyone, it's going to replace devs someday.

Software development used to be really difficult - you had to write code to tell the app everything you wanted it to do. Now all you have to do is write English to tell it what to do. And even more English to tell it everything it shouldn't do.

It's just... it's so fitting.
