For an upcoming article, I'm investigating the benefits of #coding with more #syntacticsugar when #pairedprogramming with #ai and ChatGPT suggested this fun fact: "If an AI is advanced enough (like future AGI), it may prefer more sugar: it can compress code more elegantly and make transformations more fluidly, just like how humans prefer speaking in idioms."

Just. Like. Humans. Yeesh. When will AI need a Turing Test for *us*? (I am not a robot.)

It would be nice if we could spread/unpack arrays in match conditional expressions in #PHP
