Youre right but I think the point still stands. Many times it really is easier to verify than produce. Compilable code being a good example.

- Firmwarrior 3y agoI dunno about you, but I spend a LOT of my time fixing code that was broken in some subtle way the compiler didn't catch If we're talking about generating and integrating sample code, it's great at that Anything more advanced and it's a footgun
- tominous 3y agoI have very quickly picked up the habit of pasting snippets of my code into GPT-4 and simply asking "Why is this not working?" Almost every time, it succinctly explains the apparent purpose of the code, and how it is subtly wrong. It's so good that I often do this preemptively to avoid a compile/deploy/test cycle.
