It's autocomplete on steroids…

That can guide me through the process of writing a Navier-Stokes simulation…

In a foreign language…

That can be trivially put into a loop and tasked with acting like an agent…

And which is good enough that people are already seriously asking themselves if they need to hire people to do certain tasks…

Why call BS?

It's not perfect, sure, but it's not making a highly regional joke about the Isle of White Ferry[0] either.

But you're also autocomplete (prediction engine) on steroids.
