Any other problems i didn't catch?

I'd enjoy proofreading that about as much as I've enjoyed proofreading the ramblings of some of our more notorious posters. Because it's almost guaranteed to have something wrong with it (Update: I was right), it's a waste of time; better to throw it out and start fresh from reputable sources.

ChatGPT is a bullshit generator.

Large Language Models (LLMs) are trained to produce plausible text, not true statements. ChatGPT is shockingly good at sounding convincing on any conceivable topic. But OpenAI is clear that there is no source of truth during training.

So do you really want to ask someone who doesn't actually know how to program, but can write code that looks plausible, to write some code for you, and then dig through it, debug it, and fix all of the bugs?

I'll wait until they train an AI that will take your test suite and write code against it that actually works. That AI is not ChatGPT.

And even when that AI does come out: My experience is that most programmers like writing code more than they like writing tests, and writing tests takes longer anyway, so I wonder if that will catch on at all. (And don't think about having an AI write the test suite: same problem as above.)

Show me an AI that cares about correctness as much as I do and I'll be interested.
