Just wait til that guy discovers ChatGPT.



I won’t be surprised if that guy is ChatGPT’s main audience.

Personally I can’t see how it would be faster to ask ChatGPT for an answer then carefully scrutinize the output to make sure I understand what it’s doing. Code is often easier to write than read - especially when it’s not your code.

In hindsight the solution is obvious, just run the code without reading it then try to fix it if it doesn’t produce acceptable results.


ChatGPT could help this dev if they understood the problems they are trying to solve. That is such a fundamental flaw in this. They will be on a PIP and out of a job in any respectable workplace. That would be a mercy.
