My point is that AI assisted just means you got an idea or a first draft from it. The finished product is still your code. Not the same as AI generated, which is more obviously slop.

Not that I’m defending it. I abhor all this AI gas lighting.

How can they tell if it’s AI-assisted?

I envy those that can retire soon. I’m halfway through my career, not enough money to retire yet.

Nothing. I do my best to keep my data private but I don’t let it deny me life experiences. If I did, that would be another form of power that our surveillance overlords would have over me. Fuck them.

Wait until they learn how much it costs to fix the mistakes made by Artificial Idiocy.

Startpage uses google search. I think they use the paid API service, the question is whether that service will continue after these changes.
