It can usually tweak things, if given specific instruction, but it doesn't know when to refactor (and can't reliably preserve functionality when it does), so the program gets further and further away from something sensible until it can't make edits any more.

  For serious projects you can address that by writing (or having it write) unit tests along the way, that way it can run in a loop and avoid breaking existing functionality when it adds new changes.
