Dude forgetting stuff has to be one the most frustrating parts of the entire process . Like forgetting a column in a database or just an entire piece of a function you just pasted in
It was actually worse. I was pulling data out of local logs and processing events. I asked to assess a couple columns that I was struggling to parse properly, and it got those ones in, but dropped some of my existing columns. I pointed out the error, it acknowledged the issue, then spat out code that reverted to the first output!
Though, that wasn’t nearly as bad as it telling me that a variable a couple hundred lines and multiple transformations in wasn’t being populated by an early variable, and I literally went in and just copied each declaration line and sent it back like I was smacking an intern on the nose or something…
For a bit designed to read and analyze text, it is surprisingly bad at the whole ‘reading’ aspect. But maybe that’s just how human like the intelligence is /s
Or trying to change things you never asked it to touch. So freaking annoying. I had standing instructions in it’s memory to not leave out pieces or modify things I didn’t ask for and will put that stuff in the prompt and it just does not care lol
OMFG this. I’ve had decent luck recently after setting up a project and explicitly laying out a number of global directives, because yeah, it was awful trying to figure out exactly what changed when I diff the input and output, and fucking everything is red because even the goddamned comments are changed. But even just trying to make it understand basic style requirements was a solid half hour of arguing with it (only partially because I forgot the proper names of casings) so it wouldn’t make me lint the whole goddamned script I just told it to analyze and fix one item.
Yessir I’ve basically run into all of that. It’s fucking infuriating. It really is like talking to a toddler at times. There seems to be a limit to the complexity of what it can process before it just starts messing everything up. Like once you hit its limit, it will not process the entire thing no matter how many times you fix it together like your example. You fix one problem and then it just forgets a different piece. FFFFFFFFFF.
