How can you ship something that you do not know anything about, isn't this unethical. What happen if there is a bug in the calculator , are you going to ask the AI to fix it?

Unethical? Not if you disclose it. Programmers, now, copy and paste code regularly. How ethical is that? I see a situation where a programmer is familiar with the programming language and is able to modify code but the starting code is written by ChatGPT. The programer can then go thru the debugging and implementation process. Artist and want-to-be artist using Dalle2 are having a similar argument. Artist have a point but that won't stop people from using it.

  > Unethical? Not if you disclose it. That's unfortunately not how many humans work. Take VCR tape rewinding. It's one of those things you just let slip, because it's so inconvenient. Maybe you lie to yourself about the reason why. Or maybe not. It doesn't matter. The video rental store is going to take advantage of human nature and find a new revenue stream. And the system will find a new metaphorical revenue stream. Software engineering unions and professional organizations and other things. Or maybe just more digital tracking. Not that these institutions are bad. I want my doctor to be accredited. I want individuals to have the right to organize if they truly feel exploited by management. It just doesn't feel collaborative or cooperative here. Anyways, it's tough to escape that human nature. I'm sorry for my mistakes.

    True, but in time, it will be assumed that programmers use AI to write software. It's just another tool for programmers. As far as revenue, yes, our economic system works on doing something for money. We haven't found a better way to allocate resources and get needs filled. So, someone will make a buck out of it. Without a revenue stream the whole system falls apart.
