@ell1e what dissapoints me most is the fact that the exact same issues with slopilot were found already in 2021 (the infamous fast inverse square root algorithm, ref: https://law.stackexchange.com/questions/74137/who-owns-the-right-to-the-code-generated-by-github-copilot), and people just chose to ignore that. Slopilot could have stopped embarrassing itself in those 4.5 years.
Apparently, instead they declared Q_rsqrt a bad word instead: https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/ph6irk/githib_copilot_put_q_rsqrt_on_the_indecent_words/
(I mean, that is a win for us who don't like AI, but I'm losing faith in this discipline…)
