This is a very weak prompt. I might have given this perhaps 4 or 5 out of 10 points, but I asked o3 to rate it for me and it just gave a 3/10: Critical analysis of the original prompt ──────────────────────────────────────── Strengths

The typical use case of an API is not that you personally use it. I have hundreds of clients all go through my API key, and in most cases they themselves are companies who have n clients.

Agree, and for the people who implement them -- yes, it's hard, it's annoying but presumably a well-paid job. And for the (somewhat established or well-financed) companies it's also a bit of a welcome moat I guess.

From my experience with execs and especially politicians, their understanding of "cloud" is very much focused on the data centers / hardware, i.e. a bit of an "early cloud" understanding where the main idea is to 1)

This list seems very wrong. The US is overrepresented given its relatively short history. The number of breweries in Europe that are older than the US is probably over 100. While there are a lot of tricky questions around the exact definiti

Thank you! This is the only non-vague answer, as it directly addresses the use-case. If only I had known this in my last corporate role where this discussion alone cost us weeks :/

"Bad for the environment" is relative. The problem here is that they tell you: - We're building renewables which deliver super clean and cheap energy - CO2 is the root of all evil Then, they force you to use an LED which us
