I guess "fighting fire with fire" is a valid response, but historically it's also lead to the much worse arms race in many situations. Instead of trying to win a game I believe is illegitimate, I prefer not to play.

This chain is also kinda funny: "Cut the BS!" > Streamlit App > Streamlit bought by Snowflake to push their pretty low value (IMO) but very expensive AI play. You should figure out how to run this against the output of Snowflake AI; you'd probably end up with an SQL query result set :)

We were given this advice way back in 1985 with "the only winning move is not to play. how about a nice game of chess?"
