the comic is about using a machine learning algorithm instead of a hand-coded algorithm. not about using chatGPT to write a trivial program that no doubt exists a thousand times in the data it was trained on.

The strengths of Machine Learning are in the extremely complex programs.

Programs no junior dev would be able to accomplish.

So if the post can misrepresent the issue, then the commenter can do so too.

"oh but it will but it will!"

when

"in the future"

how long in the future

"When it can do it"

how will we know it can do it

"When it can do it"

cool.
