If you would judge GPT4 to be a competent programmer your experience is wildly different from mine. (I am not sure why you felt the need to put a "basic" in there in reference to what I wrote, since that is not what I wrote).

- sgarland 3y agoI couldn’t get it to write a working B+tree implementation in Python. There was always some bug that would make it fail at some point. It’s good, don’t get me wrong, but if you go deep it’s usually incorrect somewhere.
- afpx 3y agoIt's pretty goood for me. It's saved me literally thosands of hours of work already. I ran a bunch of problems from Leetcode into it, and it got most of them right. Here's the b+tree implementation it gave me. I haven't checked if it's right. But, I was just curious what it'd come up with. https://chat.openai.com/share/a582aa43-cca8-426a-a4de-f45fdb34bf43 https://chat.openai.com/share/a582aa43-cca8-426a-a4de-f45fdb...
