Sounds amazing, but the computer didn’t do it out of blue with intelligence, but more like cookie-cutter style from already existing code. What’s the big deal

Sounds amazing, but the computer didn’t do it out of blue with intelligence, but more like cookie-cutter style from already existing code.
What’s the big deal about that?
- simianwords 8mo agoThat’s not true. It didn’t have access to the internet and no LLM has the fidelity to reproduce code verbatim from its training data at the project level. In this case, it’s true that compilers were in its training data but only helped at the conceptual level and not spitting verbatim gcc code.
- mdavid626 8mo ago> In this case, it’s true that compilers were in its training data but only helped at the conceptual level and not spitting verbatim gcc code. How do you know that? At this point AI coding feels like religion. You have to believe in it.
- simianwords 8mo agoHow do I know that? The code is not similar to GCC at any level except conceptual. If you can point out the similarity at any level I might agree with you.
- mdavid626 8mo agoI have a feeling, you didn't look at the code at all.
- simianwords 8mo agoI would love to see and be proved wrong that the code is not similar to gcc. Please point it out
- pertymcpert 8mo agoI have a feeling that you didn't because if you had, you'd realize it has more similarity to llvm than gcc.
- mdavid626 8mo agoNot sure who are you replying to. But me, personally, never said anything about gcc, nor llvm.
- pertymcpert 8mo ago> I have a feeling, you didn't look at the code at all. And you originally asked how someone knew that they weren't just spitting out gcc. So you reject their statement that it's not like gcc at all with your "you didn't look at the code at all". When its clear that you haven't looked at it.
- FeepingCreature 8mo agowell the part where it's written in rust was a lil bit of a giveaway
