@newt @phnt @lain @sun call me when it does something other than lander stolen GPL code. :senko_sleep:

I've been saying for a while these things only code good when what you are doing wasn't valuable to begin with.

Someone tried to send ChatGPT at me for some parsing tasks for Godot and it was like "have you tried pasting strings together" and it's like :neocat_gun:

I have learned the names of some algorithms from the bots though. Talking about architecture designs seems to be OK, which is incidentally a task that a very sophisticated search engine is the right solution for anyhow

@icedquinn @lain @sun @newt Everybody is making fun of Claude for failing in funny ways when writing a compiler from scratch in one of the worst languages, yet nobody seems to realize that if you would force senior engineers from a middle-sized software company to write a C compiler written from scratch, the result would probably be similar. Very little people now know how to build a functioning compiler from scratch.

@newt @icedquinn @lain @sun Yeah, that's not reality.

And I don't mean a compiler just as a thing that generates assembly. I mean the whole stack, assembler, linker and the compiler/code generator. Now make it support all the weird x86 extensions, gcc extensions and the whole C standard from C89 to C11. And have it build sqlite successfully. Because that's what Claude did. You have to compare it the same and not pick some subset of the task.
