oh yeah AI realy does not seem to actually know which packages exist. I once asked AI to create a devenv for some Julia development and it pulled some packages out of its ass that just plain did not exist.

But the cut-off point in model / harness quality before it hallucinates everything but the general Nix syntax is staggeringly low.
