I'll take "bullshit that never happened" for 400, Alex

Oh it did, they fed it data from Stack Overflow.

[-] Rhaedas@fedia.io 16 points 1 week ago

Could have been Reddit data. Stack Overflow is more heavy on the probability of telling them it's a question that's been asked before.

Or that what they are trying to do is stupid and just do X instead, which to be fair is usually actually the correct take

So going trough this the reason the AI replied like it did is because the user used a feature called "quick question" that can only respond with text and not code. (It's the last answer marked as "solution" in the linked thread.

Still funny tough.

It was obviously trained on content from Stack Overflow.

AGI has arrived ๐ŸŽ‰

[-] seaQueue@lemmy.world 10 points 1 week ago

Looks like the AI has trained on enough "this looks like your homework assignment, good luck!" comments

[-] hperrin@lemmy.ca 14 points 1 week ago

Good advice.

This is reheated news?

[-] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 1 week ago

I just wanted to comment "And this week in old as fuck news:"

[-] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 12 points 1 week ago

I'm not a coder. I don't know how to code. But this right here made me laugh, and is proof that AI isn't ALWAYS a garbled mess!
