'fix up generated code' but do you agree that finding a mistake (without even knowing if it's there) might be even harder than writing from scratch?

- PetahNZ 4y agoWe are doing this all the time anyway during code reviews.
- jrockway 4y agoIt's likely that programmers have this skill somewhere. We all make mistakes when typing in code, and many of them do get found. Some of them don't, that's what we call a bug. So AI isn't exactly breaking any ground here. I played with ChatGPT and asked it interview questions, and I thought it was a pretty interesting exercise to find its mistakes and get it to fix them. Good tool for training interviewers, perhaps.
