I'm mostly in the "fuck AI" camp. As is my eldest son. The other day I messaged him and said "I hate to say this, but I just had a helpful interaction with AI."

Python has importlib. I've used it many times, particularly when laying DB libraries conditionally.

I was in a situation where I needed to load arbitrary python code from an arbitrary location. I was sure I could use importlib to do this, but couldn't sort it out. Nine of my search results turned to anything that moved me in the right direction. Finally I asked copilot. Not only did it get me where I needed to go but when I told it "I got this error when doing this thing." It told me I was a moron and why.

Needless to say I got my weird problem sorted.

AI still sucks though.
