I have to take your word for it because I don’t know what good code looks like lol. Again, to compare to what I’m familiar with, you can also ask an LLM to draft you a purchase agreement for shares of a private company, and if you’re not a lawyer it’ll look good…and it’ll be able to sound like it’s explaining to you why it’s good…but it will not be good haha
You use software though? You don’t need to even look at the code, lol. I’m downloading open source projects and modifying their functionality for my personal use with Claude and I don’t even know how they work. Don’t even open the code in an editor, I don’t need to know what it looks like.
Ah, well in that case I won't take your word for it that it's good. I'll take your word for it that it's working for you for now... Again in a legal context, that's like "I got chat GPT to write this contract, and it's working great," but of course...it won't be when things go wrong haha!
I was suspicious the whole time, reading your replies. This finally seals it. Troll confirmed. Well played.
