Welcome to late stage capitalism where the game's made up and the points don't matter.

Privatize the profits and socialize the losses.

I've tried to use "AI" to help me with minor programming tasks, or to start basic projects, it's really bad. As in, it takes me more effort to fix the garbage it outputs than it would have to write it from scratch. In addition to that, it writes things badly in non-obvious ways. Junior engineers make similar mistakes to each other, because they're working logically. "AI" makes weird mistakes because it's not working in the same way a human mind does.
