    I really love when I ask the AI to do something, and it gives me 40-50 lines to do it, and I tell it there’s no way something like that should take that much code, and it’s like oh, ya you’re right, here’s a 5 line version using something from from the standard sdk.

    I’ve tried to put in its memory to not do things like that, but it keeps doing it.

      I watched it remove a JSON library include from the code because it wasn’t used yet, and then in the very next prompt where we needed our again, it attempted to write a basic parser from scratch…

        I can believe this. I’ve been put on slop duty, and had the slopmachine go all

        Time to run the test to ensure everything is good. It passed. Good. Let’s run the entire suite to ensure no regressions. All tests passed, yay.

        And I’m here thinking, if you’re gonna run the whole suite anyway, why’d you run an individual test? That’s just redundant.

          It’s pretty much what i do when i think i’m done. Run the test(s) for the stuff i touched, then the whole suite to make sure nothing else broke. Why would i take all that time to run the whole suite every time?
