I’m surprised it scores that well.
Well, ok… that seems about right for languages like JavaScript or Python, but try it on languages with a reputation for being widely used to write terrible code, like Java or PHP (hence having been trained on terrible code), and it’s actively detrimental to even experienced developers.
The best method I've found for using it is to help you with languages you may have lost familiarity in and to walk it through what you need step by step. This lets you evaluate it's reasoning. When it gets stuck in a loop:
Try A!
Actually A doesn't work because that method doesn't exist.
Oh sorry Try B!
Yeah B doesn't work either.
You're right, so sorry about that, Try A!
Yeah.. we just did this.
at that point it's time to just close it down and try another AI.
We need a comparison against an average coder. Some fucking baseline ffs.
