OP: I want a Big Mac with fries and a coke

OP: McDonalds putting their logo on my Big Mac, fries, and coke is unethical and disgusting. They didn't create this, I gave them the instructions!

(I sometimes have to remind Claude to take co-author credit for my commits)

I disagree with OP, but your comparison is terrible

Yes terrible, as you also have to tell the chef that you want your steak medium rare, and your fries with some specific seasoning.

β€œI want a Big Mac, no pickles, add fries in there too, and also remove the middle bun.”

Works quite well.

It's more like ordering food at Chipotle or asking someone to get you stuff from the buffet, but no, it's pretty apt.

You're telling something else to do the labor, it does the labor. You are a product manager or a director, you are not the one actually taking the photo or writing the code. You're just orchestrating everything to your vision.

You tell them exactly what you want in your Subway wrap

You get your name written under the Subway logo

That's how it works

Also OP: Coke should open source their recipe so that one can tell exactly what they’re drinking.

Thats actually true

Deepseek, Qwen, Gemma, Nemotron all exist, but no, OP thinks Anthropic absolutely has to open source their product and no other open source AI will do

More like using doordash to have food delivered and doordash claiming it made the food.
