Agree completely. I've been using it to refresh my memory on old languages long forgotten. We have a modernization project to get away from COBOL (I know..I know..) and it's helping some with that. But dang, it has to be watched closely as the AI Hallucinations keep getting in the way.

I noticed you mentioned python. I tried to get it to create code to parse a PDF and it kept using functions that never existed. I fed it the pyPDF library, still a no go. I'll just do it by hand. No biggie... but it was a good test case to see if it can do something pretty easy and it couldn't.

I found that the more specific you are the better. I usually send a lot of ‘system’ (user) messages to improve how it responds. At least for the in-vehicle use cases I’ve defined API’s for it’s been quite amazing....not perfect but better than any other in-vehicle voice recognition system I’ve ever used (which are far worse).

Also...I think the biggest problem with writing code, you can rarely, if ever, define the requirements to be specific enough. It’s great for some educational boilerplate to code (e.g. write me a based client/server socket comms code in C) but for anything more complex, requirements are usually so poor, even for humans, that to expect it to write anything large or of real substance is asking too much.
