@arclight@oldbytes.space exactly! i've seen someone ask a chatbot "would you hallucinate if i asked you X" and it's just... not how it works.

@jneen@unstable.systems @arclight@oldbytes.space a point I like to emphasize in these discussions is that if you gave me the same kind of money currently being lit on fire, I could build you a system that would take a natural-language query about code you want you write and then come up with a short list of open-source projects (along with their licenses) that have code that does that thing, along with a pointer to that exact snippet of code. It would of course have some results that weren't great sometimes and there would be an art to querying it effectively, like any search engine... But it would be a much better programming assistant than code LLMs.
