I’m sure there is a simple answer and I’m an idiot, but given it’s in a place that gets lots of sun, can they not just install solar panels with batteries at consumer/grid level?

Or is the problem not with the generation of the power and with transmitting it to properties? I don’t know cost of solar installation but I’m sure the amount it’s costing them when it all fails they could at least incentives individuals to install solar or something.

One point that stands out to me is that when you ask it for code it will give you an isolated block of code to do what you want.

In most real world use cases though you are plugging code into larger code bases with design patterns and paradigms throughout that need to be followed.

An experienced dev can take an isolated code block that does X and refactor it into something that fits in with the current code base etc, we already do this daily with Stackoverflow.

An inexperienced dev will just take the code block and try to ram it into the existing code in the easiest way possible without thinking about if the code could use existing dependencies, if its testable etc.

So anyway I don’t see a problem with the tool, it’s just like using Stackoverflow, but as we have seen businesses and inexperienced devs seem to think it’s more than this and can do their job for them.
