        Oh gods, not the “Think of the blind coders” just stop. Stop using the disabled as a meat-shield for reckless foolishness.

          Some wanker a year or two back told me that AI was the only way to truly democratize things like art. I was like what about practice? And they got really pissed about the potential for people to have no hands or arms or legs.

        I know a blind person who uses an LLM for coding assistance. Mind you he doesn’t need to use it, I’ve known him for 20 years and he did just fine without it.
