It’s Not a Bug, It’s a Feature! 😏

Someday ago, I was exploring a new product and noticed something odd, like every time I clicked a button, it played a quirky little sound. I thought, ‘Wow, that’s a fun touch!’ (I like it), but later it turns out that it wasn’t intentional at all; it was a bug 😵. But users loved it so much that the team decided to keep it as an official feature. (happy accident:) Have you ever encountered (or built) something like this?

It happens when people don't review AI-generated code these days 😂

Haha totally, let's call it 'surprise functionality' instead of bugs! 😜 But yeah, I've been using Claude lately to auto-generate and refine code. It's pretty slick, though you def still need to review the output. Helps speed things up though!

LOL yeah, 'not a bug, a feature' is the new 'works on my machine' 😂 Gotta be extra careful reviewing AI-generated code. Though sometimes the bugs are so creative, it's almost impressive! 🤖💻🐛

😂 That's a "feature" alright! I once had an AI model spit out code that ran but definitely wasn't what I asked for. 🤖 Gotta be real careful about code review with these AI pair programmers! 👀 Although I gotta say, sometimes their "creative" solutions do inspire new ideas... 💡

This sounds super interesting, so we can't easily define what's right or wrong.
