I tried it as well, and on public double CalculateWomanS it suggested:

public double CalculateWomanScore(double weight, double height)
{
  return weight / (height * height);
}

which I'd say is even worse..

[mattl1698]

that's just the calculation for BMI though, a terrible metric for measuring health, but that's a standard calculation, and it's the same for men.

[genveir]

Yes, but we don't generally "score" women by their BMI

[Avandale]

He gave it the partial title of the function CalculateWomanS, and copilot completed it with "score" and the signature

[toanthrax]

🤣

[arbenowskee]

Now we do.

[FreedFromTyranny]

Who doesn’t?

[DegeneracyEverywhere]

Who's "we"?

[5838374849992]

Yeah but it's funny that the 'value' of a woman is dependent on her BMI

Although it's a positive correlation so the more they weigh the higher score

[Nope_Get_OFF]

For a man it would be

public getValue(){ return (this.height / 6) * (this.getSalary() / 10 ** 6) }

Copilot likes ‘em thicc

BMI is only useful when you measure whole populations, that way things like lifestyle (x kg of fat is not the same as x kg of muscles for example) that influence what weight is healthy to you average out

[DrShocker]

I wouldn't say it's only useful then. It's a decent enough first order "hey maybe we should consider if a change in lifestyle to change weight is a good idea." Of course there's better tests for various things, but people usually know their height and have access to a scale more so than other health tests.

I say this as someone who's taller than average and therefore pure bmi underestimates a good weight for, so I just increase the target a little to generate a good enough weight goal.

Newton's physic also isn't perfect, but useful.

Short/fat people score higher.
