Thanks for the tip. I put in an example that ChatGPT completely failed at and phind eventually got the right answer.

Oddly it went off on a tangent about how the problem can't be solved in Python, which I never mentioned.

But when I explicitly told it I wanted c++ it gave a decent answer.

It did, however, get some nuances seriously wrong.

> Precision loss for large integers: When encoding to JSON, UInt64 and Int64 are encoded as strings of base-10 digits in ASCII, since JavaScript's numeric type only affords 53 bits of precision. This means that large integers might lose precision when converted to JSON.
