This raises the question: what information did Amazon Q ingest to be able to write C64 Basic, and from where – OCR'd books and magazine off Google Books? Online tutorials? That would explain whether it would be possible to adapt this workflow to supporting other relatively obscure platforms, with a limited documentation set that's certainly not available online on the internet in easily parsable HTML: e.g. PDP-11 assembly, Turbo Pascal, classic Macintosh/Macintosh Toolbox, etc.

Who knows, it might be a shot in the arm for retrocomputing enthusiasts.
