How about the reason he just explained? Do you disagree that relying on AI to make changes without knowing what it's doing makes you a worse programmer? How would it not?

If you don't know what a good or a bad approach to any problem is because you've never actually had to solve it, you can't even know what being a proficient programmer means, so how could you hope to be one?

They literally state here that they can't do that, since the risk is jailbreaking which seems to be an intrinsic part of LLMs.

I hate toxic liberalism ao much. No it's not that all libs are naive idiots, not at all. Just the toxic ones

I hate toxic liberalism, toxic feminism, toxic gay rights, toxic DEI, toxic emancipation, toxic gun control, toxic abortions, etc.

No it's not that I'm against any those things just the toxic applications of them.

Blacks do more mass shootings proportionally, numbnuts.

I don't care. Black people behaving the way they do TODAY makes the world a worse place to live. And since it's not 2020 any more I don't have to censor myself for insane people who can't handle this fact.

Do you understand what the term "per capita" means? We should force people to take a test on this term before you're allowed to comment on racial issues.
