Do you think this was guided by a low quality Anthropic developer?

You can give a developer the GCC test suite and have them build the compiler backwards, which is how this was done. They literally brute forced it, most developers can brute force. It also literally uses GCC in the background... Maybe try reading the article.

HEH... I'm sorry man but I truly don't understand what point you're trying to make, other than change the subject and get nasty.

You take care now.

The trick to not be confused is to read more than the title of the article.

I love how I'm getting downvoted for calling him out for saying "read the article".

The people in here have gone entirely nuts.
