That's the great thing about using GPT for code - unlike factual knowledge, it's very easy to confirm if the code it wrote had errors or not: you run it.

The you test it manually with a few more inputs, then you write some automated tests for it (maybe with GPT's assistance).

You can put AI in an iteration loop with a compiler and have it bake a functional test suite overnight. It’s a TDD practitioner’s dream.

“Ran this with no errors, works great” is how you end up with Microsoft exposing everyone’s personal email via Bing.
