Asking GPT to explain what I do to a 5 year old.

I help people move their computer stuff from old machines in their office to a magical place called “the cloud,” where it’s safer and easier to use. I make sure everything works the right way, and I lock it up tight so bad guys can’t get in.

Letting Claude build my report's front end and it's spent the last 2 hours trying to figure out what it broke by the previous prompt telling it to make expandible rows collapsed by default.
