I did try out random characters as well, but if it's too long it becomes a pain to read out over the phone. Not unlike masked iCloud emails, which are horrific. Plus the lookup issue you mentioned. I've also considered some kind

I think we're probably seeing Goodhart's law in action here. There have been a few CEOs announcing that 'X% of our code is now written by AI', where X is some totally non-credible number to anyone that has used an LLM fo
