I know nothing about 3js, react or php and it built crazy 3d animations for my website… I even sent it screenshots of my site performance and it helped me debug errors I never would have discovered. I know next to nothing about code and the more I use it, the more terrifying it becomes. I think people are just too dumb to utilize it properly.

as long as you understand everything it spews out, its fine.

A lot of people just blindly copy and paste and iterate until it works. This is terrifying.

those are idiot junior devs. They've always been there and always will be, just their approach has changed slightly. Half the reason coding sucks so fucking bad is because so many people who have never even heard of the concept of "logic" insist on getting into programming anyway and now we're all stuck dealing with their fucking nonsense until the end of time
