[ErroneousBosh]

I have to admit since VSCode seems to be regularly re-enabling the Cocaine Parrot Autocomplete my views on LLMs and coding has softened a little.

I'll temper that slightly by saying it's mostly out of morbid curiosity because the things that the Dreaming Piracy Robot comes up with are frequently wildly incorrect code, but it's interesting to think about how it might have got there.

And then I think, well, maybe Special Needs Wintermute has a point. Maybe there's a different way to think about it that I've missed.

And then I just change it back to what I wanted in the first place.

I use the autocomplete regularly. Perhaps that’s where my skepticism comes from, as I can see the completely incorrect yet plausible results in real time and about 50% of the time they are wrong (sometimes subtly, sometimes horribly).
