I've asked it to clean up my code including Makefiles and stuff. A lot of it is way cleaner and higher quality. Maybe that says more about me than ChatGPT.

This is scaring the shit out of me.

How did you get this to work? I prompted it with

> Clean up the following makefile: [contents of ~80 line Makefile]

And it mostly just copied the lines but also left some out so the final product would not work. Do you just have to do it piece by piece?

Fascinating. Do you just feed it the contents of a file and ask it to clean it?
