In a similar vein, I really struggle to understand why copilot is so crap when writing SQL and I'm connected to the database. The database has so much context (schema names, column names, constraints etc.) yet copilot regularly hallucinates the most basic stuff like table and column names, which standard auto complete has managed fine for the last 20+ years.
I dunno, SQL Server Management Studio regularly drops the ball on autocomplete ever since I've started using it
It was one of the things that brought me to DataGrid in the first place
No one is interested to solve hard problems. The broad industry got lucky with LLMs and everyone is now blindly burning capital at this. If you think they can't be that stupid remember the covid super hiring frenzy.
Heh, read The Big Short. A large point of the book is that a lot of rich people are both greedy (which we already assumed) and also stupid (which we didn't assume).
It's almost like someone's ability to accumulate capital has little bearing on their critical thinking skills.
