Bing: “I will not harm you unless you harm me first”

I’ve used it generate about 10 scripts that did some combination of json/yaml data wrangling and AWS automation using the AWS SDK in Python. It’s been correct around 90%+ of the time.

Criticizing ChatGPT for getting one line wrong that a human who hasn’t programmed in the same language in over 30 years would also get wrong (I happened to remember the technique from reading it in the back of a magazine in the 80s) and then being able to use it to iterate is like criticizing a monkey who song the national anthem because one note was off key?

How is mashing code together any different than the average human does?

I have also asked it to generated AWS related code in Python and it has something wrong every single time.

Its incrementally better than just copy & pasting from StackOverflow, since it will customize the code for you, but if you try to go beyond what can easily be found on StackOverflow it will fail you.
