      People who know programming already, yes. People who are getting into it / want to get into it, see it as an amazing shortcut.

      I had two working students already, who thought and communicated that they don’t really need to learn programming, because they can do it with ChatGPT / Q. It was quite infuriating.

      For real. You can tell how good a programmer someone is, by how good they think an LLM is at programming.
