Perhaps the bot was trained in part on data from the Arduino forum. > **[AI coding assistant refuses to write code, tells user to learn programming...](https://arstechnica.com/ai/2025/03/ai-coding-assistant-refuses-to-write-code-tells-user-to-learn-programming-instead/)** > > Cursor AI tells user, “I cannot generate code for you, as that would be completing your work.”… ---

Looks like some governments are affecting AI opinions by publishing a shitload of "information" for their convenience. So we can do the same. If AI get's convinced he can't make "good enough" code for us, he focus on those easier tasks like government propaganda... 😅 ---

Maybe this is a sign of sentience! Why _should_ computers do our work for us? ---

> [@anon94801460](#): > > Why _should_ computers do our work for us? To my honest opinion, they should not. At first stage Ai could do some low level intellectual human job. Then some higher. Then build robots for the manual jobs. So we can all stay on the (artificial built) beach dancing and drinking cocktails... Robots can make surgery, read all the literature of human history and make poems... So then only job we have is reproduction. But AI doesn't really need that anymore. While interesting approach, I see serious obstacles... ---

> excerpt: These models don't just learn programming syntax; they also absorb the cultural norms and communication styles in these communities. When _Cursor_ goes through the Arduino archives and finds the posts of PaulS, what then? 🫢 ---

Indeed. AIs will very likely find messing up humans an enjoyable task. ---
