Seems like a poor advertisement for their product if their shining example of utility is a broken compiler that doesn't function as the README indicates.

Impressive that it made a c compiler though? Or do we judge all programmers by their documentation now?

  • All it took was all the C compilers they could scrape into their training set.

    It’s not impressive in the sense that it’s doing what it was designed to.

    It just happens that it generated a C compiler that kind of worked.

    Someone came by later and used more AI on it to make it closer to a production grade C compiler like gcc/clang.

    Saying, “it made a C compiler,” is not specific enough.
