It can’t even copy and paste a Hello World example properly. If someone says it’s working well for them, I’m going to now assume they are too ignorant to understand what’s broken.
It works well for recalling something you already know, whether it be computer or human language. What’s a word for… what’s a command/function that does…
It’s not even good for words. AI just writes the same stories over and over and over and over and over and over. It’s the same problem as coding. It can’t think of anything novel. Hell I can’t even think. I’d argue the best and only real use for an llm is to help be a rough draft editor and correct punctuation and grammar. We’ve gone way way way too far with the scope of what it’s actually capable of
@Xenny@frongt it’s definitely not good for words with any technical meaning, because it creates references to journal articles and legal precedents that sound plausible but don’t exist.
Ultimately it’s a *very* expensive replacement for the lorem ipsum generator keyboard shortcut.
I use it for things that are simple and monotonous to write. This way I’m able to deliver results to tasks I couldn’t have been arsed to do. I’m a data analyst and mostly use mysql and power query
What’s your preferred Hello world language? I’m gunna test this out. The more complex the code you need, the more they suck, but I’ll be amazed if it doesn’t work first try to simply print hello world.
Edit: Funny enough, ChatGPT fails to get this right, even with the answer right there on Wikipedia. When I tried running ChatGPT’s output the first few characters were correct but it errors with invalid char at 37
I’m actually slightly impressed it got both a working program, and a different one than Wikipedia. The Wikipedia one prints “Hello, world.”
I guess there must be another program floating around the web with “Hello World!”, since there’s no chance the LLM figured it out on its own (it kinda requires specialized algorithms to do anything)

It works well when you use it for small (or repetitive) and explicit tasks. That you can easily check.

According to OpenAis internal test suite and system card, hallucination rate is about 50% and the newer the model the worse it gets.
And that fact remains unchanged on other LLM models.
For words, it’s pretty good. For code, it often invents a reasonable-sounding function or model name that doesn’t exist.

Malbolge is a fun one

Cheeky, I love it.
Got correct code first try. Failed creating working docker first try. Second try worked.
tmp="$(mktemp)"; cat >"$tmp" <<'MBEOF' ('&%:9]!~}|z2Vxwv-,POqponl$Hjig%eB@@>}=<M:9wv6WsU2T|nm-,jcL(I&%$#" `CB]V?Tx<uVtT`Rpo3NlF.Jh++FdbCBA@?]!~|4XzyTT43Qsqq(Lnmkj"Fhg${z@> MBEOF docker run --rm -v "$tmp":/code/hello.mb:ro esolang/malbolge malbolge /code/hello.mb; rm "$tmp"Output: Hello World!
Why the fuck does this language exist lol

I’d never even heard of that language, so it was fun to play with.
Definitely agree that the LLM didn’t actually figure anything out, but at least it’s not completely useless
