It’s great for things like “How do I write this kind of loop in this language” but when I asked it for something more complex like a class or a big-ish function it hallucinates. But it makes for a very fast way to get up to speed in a new language
The study said 86.66% of the generated software systems were “executed flawlessly.”
But…
Nevertheless, the study isn’t perfect: Researchers identified limitations, such as errors and biases in the language models, that could cause issues in the creation of software. Still, the researchers said the findings “may potentially help junior programmers or engineers in the real world” down the line.

And how long did it take to compose the “assignments?” Humans can work with less precise instructions than machines, usually, and improvise or solve problems along the way or at least sense when a problem should be flagged for escalation and review.
But did it work?
As someone that uses ChatGPT daily for boilerplate code because it’s super helpful…
I call complete bullshite
The program here will be “hello world” or something like that.
Absolutely I can create a code for your app.
You may need to change the code above to fit your needs. Make sure you replace the comment with the proper code for your app to work.
Couldn’t even write a void method right, return true!
LMAO. At list it didn’t
sudo void…(:“hello world” as a service?

Yea I ask it to show me examples of how to solve specific tasks. Not a whole app.
OTOH, if you take that hello world program and ask it to compose a themed cocktail menu around it, it’ll cheerfully do that for you.
I can totally see the use case for boilerplate, but I’m also very very rarely writing new classes from scratch or whatever.
As always, proof of concept or gtfo
But…
So… they failed 13.34% of their own unit tests?
That’s a B+! Fire all our engineers immediately.
Better than CyberPunk at release.

And when the reviews are terrible and end users start reporting unreal quantities of bugs, they’ll fire the junior devs. They should have fixed those!
