Wow, the text generator that doesn't actually understand what it's "writing" is making mistakes? Who could have seen that coming?

I once asked one to write a basic 50-line Python program (just to flesh things out), and it made so many basic errors that any first-year CS student could catch. Nobody should trust LLMs with anything related to security, FFS.

My experience with ChatGPT goes like this:

Write me a block of code that makes x thing
Certainly, here's your code
Me: This is wrong.
You're right, this is the correct version
Me: This is wrong again.
You're right, this is the correct version
Me: Wrong again, you piece of junk.
I'm sorry, this is the correct version.
(even more useless code) ... and so on.
