""I recently used AI as a simple fill-in replace tool for words in my code. All it had to do was replace only a class = A , Parent = "X" with Parent = "Y" but because it's AI I had more expectations and I told it, here are the exceptions anything with tag: do-not-modify , you do not fucking modify. Also any Parent with a child that has class = A must also be modified according to the child. (It didn't understand that part even after I made it write a memory file for itself and fed it to it ... it only worked after the 5th time after I turned reasoning ON which is just it doing 20 times the guess work on itself like a dumb parrot judging another dumb parrot over 20 times)"""

The AI also did not figure out to apply those tag: do-not-modify to 3 more files that shared similar if almost identical text. The only difference was... the line & colon order was different... and of course my classes, parents, childs did not have those explicit "tag: do-not-modify" but otherwise the names, definitions, details of the classes, parents, childs were the exact same in my 3/4 files compared to the 1st file ... and the AI could not figure that out even after I told it.
