Hi,

Yes exactly, they shoot themselves into the foot.
They adopted the academic closed world attitute,
as can be seen here, not noticing that the John

Doe programmers are not necessarily a theoretical
computer science titanic A-class member:

As an example, consider this question – invented, but not far-fetched:
"Random keeps giving me the same numbers. Is it broken?"
This is a low-quality question, in my view.

Now try the same with ChatGPT:

Q: Random keeps giving me the same numbers. Is it broken?

A: It sounds like your Random object might not be
re-seeded, which could cause it to generate the same
sequence of numbers every time you run your program.
By default, Random is seeded with the current time in
  milliseconds, but if you create it multiple times in
quick succession, it might receive the same seed and
generate the same numbers.

Bye
