I've also posted this to the CDL mail list. Prereq: I'm not so much interested in failures, I've seen a lot. I'm interested in successes. I've been playing with AI to help me program (I haven't quite gotten to using things like LM Notebook). I've used it to quickly write data parsing scripts for testing (I do QA on software defined networks). For the quick and dirty script it usually gets me about 95% there, quickly. I've attempted to use AI to fix & improve a data tool (in browser JS). That went really badly as it would loose huge chunks of code and. When I needed to write a complex test suite (Robot Framework/Python) things got even worse as corporate security issues got in the way and the AI didn't seem to understand what was needed to fix them. This was just before my end of year vacation so I haven't been able to find the correct corp. chat to get help and none of my coworkers seem to understand (weird). Now, on to my hobby use. This gets even worse. I normally give the AI a set of requirements, something normal to anyone who does software engineering professional. I even cover the 'Business As Usual' parts that every SE fails to provide. So for my home project of C code to read, write, create, and modify Flex OS Gotek images under Linux, I gave it a nice set of requirements as assumed that the AI would not find the information on the internet. That went very badly as it had a lot of trouble with off by one errors. I've tried Python, C and 68000 asm and all come up quite short when I start testing. Has anyone created real applications with AI? I see tons of Youtube videos that claim they have. So either I'm the problem or the AI is not up to the marketing hype. And for anyone interested, I can share the requirements of my home project. I can't share my work related projects. -- Linux Home Automation Neil Cherry ncherry@linuxha.com http://www.linuxha.com/ Main site http://linuxha.blogspot.com/ My HA Blog Author of: Linux Smart Homes For Dummies KD2ZRQ
