Thank you for your perspective. Regardless of how code is generated—through AI or manually—it always requires validation in each user’s environment, and that was my intention here. I understand the remark about “congrats” might have been tongue-in-cheek, but I believe we’re all here to learn and share ideas.
Thanks again for your input, and take care!

My congrats was meant in earnest. The now broad availability of AI is quickly changing how many of us will need to work. Learning how to interact and use AI is important. 

The point I tried to make: Just posting AI generated answers without validation and manual "post processing" bears the risk of creating too much "noise" without really answering the OPs question.

Thank you for explaining what you were attempting to communicate, and I agree that being able to work with AI is such a skill to acquire today. Knowing that, I think this platform is all about problem-solving and collaboration as a group where we share ideas—either we create them ourselves or with the help of AI tools—to increase learning and creativity.

On the question of "noise," I don't believe that constructive contributions, even with AI assistance, is that. I was simply aiming to offer a potential solution to OP's question, understanding they may need to tailor it to their specific circumstances

So, ultimately, we're here only to share ideas and help each other with problems, not to criticize how people arrive at their solutions. I hope we can remain on topic with the subject and help OP's question constructively. Thanks for clarifying!
