[COFF] Re: The era of general purpose computing (Re: AIX moved into maintainance mode (COFFed)

I’ve played with ChatGPT, and the first 10 minutes were a bit confronting. But the remainder of the hour or so I played overcame my initial concerns. It’s amazing what can be done, especially with Javascript or Python, when you ask for something that’s fairly simple to define, and in a common application area. You can get reasonable code, refine it, ask for an altered approach, etc. It’s probably quicker than writing it yourself, especially if you’re not intimately familiar with the library being used (or even the language). But … it pretty quickly becomes clear that there’s no semantic understanding of what’s being done behind it. And unless you specify what you want in pretty minute detail, the output is unlikely to be what you want.
