The problem with genAI is that it's very useful and informative until it isn't, and then it will spout incorrectness. The issues with relying on it are the same as relying on a classmate who has read ahead in the literature but haven't internalized the trickier details.

In other words it will help you find the relevant loops and switch statements in ARM assembly, but then fail to explain a "ldr r1 [pc, #40]" four times in a row. Confidently giving different explanations each time.

Have animal's ears become a greater part of their cultural identity due to the emergence of post-agrarian society and girls who are a little bit beastly?

Person whose only relation to British detective media is the 2015 game Contradiction: "This is just like the 2015 game Contradiction!"

Yu-gi-oh and Magic: the Gathering are overwhelming terrible incomprehensible games in somehow totally different ways. TCGs are so great.

I've been breaking down these last days, weeks, months, and let me tell you: it comes recommended 10/10.

You could get so many good user tags by picking apart those of porn bots. I just had one with "hemisphere", and that's just a great word.

Cheese Doodles were long missing their Norman certification, until someone realized they were meant to be eaten with chopsticks. 10/10 design.

I made a pie that was like 60% crust. Pies should not be 60% crust.
