True story:

AI: 42, ]

Vibe coder: oh no, a syntax error, programming is too difficult, software engineers are gatekeeping with their black magic.

let data = null
do {
    const response = await openai.prompt(prompt)
    if (response.error !== null) continue;
    try {
        data = JSON.parse(response.text)
    } catch {
        data = null // just in case
    }
} while (data === null)
return data

Meh, not my money
