Homeopathy is deeply unethical

The method of invoking the water memory is exceptionally problematic. The water had been in *terrible* places. It witnessed... things... It carries an incomprehensible levels of trauma.

And you invoke it to what? To cure a cold what would pass by itself in a few days? How dare you!

LLM-generated docs be like

```python
def wiggle_bottom(self, amplitude: float, phase: float) -> RC:
"""This function would wiggle the bottom. It takes the following arguments: amplitude (a double-precision floating point value according to ieee734 standard) and phase (also a double-precision floating point value formetted to ieee734). As a result it would provide a remote controller."""
```

You'd better go learn some #Ithkuil as the planet devolves into a complete clownshow

Wait, the *Disney* movie? Ah, the Aristocats....

For the final render I've asked for the corals to be more branchy and that was it. I deliberately didn't suggest anything in implementation or composition to avoid contaminating its idea.
I've been iterating to get an unobstructed camera angle, tweaking a few parameters to my liking, but the bulk of the code it made by itself.

It's actually pretty capable. The first images were simple, but had a point. Having seen the result it proposed a few tweaks. And after getting the sources for example scenes and elementary functions it picked up more stuff to its satisfaction.
