All of my tools are:
- Deterministic
- Actually fucking work
- Don't consume 5 small nations worth of power
AI has exactly zero of those properties. I like using tools that work, I ain't gonna use a combine harvester if it fails to harvest my crops while also using 5000 gallons of gas to drive in circles.
When I program, I know what I'm doing. That is a significant speed advantage because I get something that works the first time, is maintainable, and also exercises my brain so it doesn't turn into mush.
