I've experimented with chatbots to see their capabilities to develop small bits and pieces of code, and every friggin time, the first thing I have to say is "shut up, keep to yourself, I want short, to the point replies"because the complimenting is so "whose a good boy!!!!" annoying.
People don't talk like these chatbots do, their training data that was stolen from humanity definitely doesn't contain that, that is "behavior" included by the providers to try and make sure that people get as hooked as possible
Gotta make back those billions of investments on a dead end technology somehow
