AI like chat gpt does open the doors to people expressing their thoughts using imprecise language and getting results easier, with less of the guarantee of having their thoughts translated perfectly. But in many situations we don't want that because we can do much better.

And why would we want to hand our vision, our autonomy and decision making power over to a machine?

This is why #AI will not ultimately replace software engineering. Programming languages are designed optimally for expressing thoughts precisely in ways that allow a computer to execute our vision.

We used to have these growing in our garden in the backyard growing up. Fond memories.

Just moved to the area and have been attending Anglican church for around 4 years. Plan to visit your parish on a Sunday coming up soon!

Some types of quantum computers (superconducting, semiconductor quantum dot based) operate at temperatures of tens of milliKelvin. Colder than outer space.
