The best thing that's come out of this ChatGPT bullshit is making me feel like I'm actually good at my job. To be clear, I'm not - but at the very least I can reverse engineer functional code and logically map out what I think is supposed to be happening. The bare minimum that should be required, and yet here we are, with me being able to lord my wizardry over the ChatGPT peasantry.

ETA: specifically lording myself over people who use ChatGPT to do the whole thing, not people who just use it to cut down on busywork
