Why does this exist?
The example AI-generated explanation shown doesn't seem any more helpful than the original error. It just states the same information in a long-winded manner.
Errors and warnings are already deterministic and unambiguous. Why introduce the opportunity to confuse people or just be plain wrong?
- dullcrisp 2y agoLooks like it’s basically like Googling the error message, which is usually the first thing I do with an error I don’t understand. Seems like a reasonable integration from that perspective.
- ozzcer 2y agoExcept in the example it suggests setting no-cors, which is the vast majority of circumstances will still lead to errors that are going to be harder to understand.
- ajross 2y agoWhy does StackOverflow exist? Why does /usr/bin/man exist? The idea that "deterministic and unambiguous" error messages emitted at the point of failure are all that you need to fix your code seems kinda laughable, frankly.
- kibwen 2y agoIf deterministic and unambiguous error messages aren't good enough, I somewhat doubt that nondeterministic and confabulated error messages will be much of an improvement.
