Ask a human to "build twitter" and walk away and tell me how it goes. Vague requests will never work, no matter how intelligent the person being asked is, because they don't have enough information to give you what you want.

Dealing with the situation would mean actually acting in your self interest instead of deferring to a cookie-cutter narrative to justify yourself as an essential meat proxy. Maybe stop feeding your data into the job destroying machine while paying for the privilege? Maybe come up with a better story for management than prompt wispersing, like at least writing your integration code yourself...
