~~Propmp Engineer~~ Sloperator
I wouldn't give my rubber duck access to my system and then cry on twitter when he deletes my filesystem.
Please give me link!
These are just the first two I could find, but there are plenty of similar stories that have passed by.

Can't wait to have a laugh in the office about this tomorrow
I prefer talking to my rubber ducky because I can tell they are a true professional. They are not giving you any feedback unless they are absolutly certain it works.
Prompt engineer is like saying I own a roller to paint walls, and I am a painter
The only difference is that the duck doesn't consume the water of a small county and more electric than needed to put a man on the moon.
Also ducks aren't easily prompted to generate CP.
