Fair, but I am seeing so much talk about how it is completing actual SDE tickets. Maybe not this model specifically, but to be honest I don't care about generating dummy data, I care about the claims that these newer models are on par with junior engineers.

Junior engineers will complete a task to update an API, or fix a bug on the front-end, within a couple days with lets say 80 percent certainty they hit the mark (maybe an inflated metric). How are people comparing the output of these models to that of a junior engineer if they generally just say "Here is some of my code, what's wrong with it?". That certainly isn't taking a real ticket and completing it in any capacity.

I am obviously very skeptical but mostly I want to try one of these models myself but in reality I think that my higher-ups would think that they introduce both risk AND the potential for major slacking off haha.
