Discussion I'm puzzled how anyone trusts ChatGPT for code I asked ChatGPT to convert a simple 12-line Python program to Lisp.The result is broken by mismatched brackets. Yes. In Lisp.I ask for correction and receive the errant bracket moved, still mismatched.I ask again and the bracket gets removed. Fine??No. A loop break has been mistranslated to a return from function, so execution is nonsense.I wonder how much user faith in ChatGPT is based on examples in which the errors are not apparent ... to a certain kind of user. 133 points chrisjj 2 years ago 189 comments
