And "lazy".

Claude makes me mad: even when I ask for small code snippets to be improved, it increasingly starts to comment "what I could improve" in the code I stead of generating the embarrassingly easy code with the improvement itself.

If I point it to that by something like "include that yourself", it does a decent job.

That's so _L_azy.

LLMs are cheaters because their goal isn't to produce good code but to please the human.
