Laugh all you want, I once made something like that work. Not with one prompt of course. More like two days of prompting, but still... I'm sure if I was doing it by hand it would take me a week of work at least

And no less than a small city's water usage consumed in the process!

To keep track of your basic bitches, yes. Keep up.

Weird that you had to port the language of your uhm...database repository? But whatever it takes to keep track of your basic bitches! 🫡

There are lots of them. Like, billions, and I'm tracking a lot, so ut has to work across multiple drives and potentially devices, sometimes across time zones, with dynamic real time inputs that need to be sanitized, and regular reports to different people who need different formats.

Pretty sure you could do no worse than AI with an hour of search-replace regex.
