It says it will finish the code, it doesn't say the code will work.

    I was going to say. The code won’t compile but it will be “finished “

    A couple agent iterations will compile. Definitely won't do what you wanted though, and if it does it will be the dumbest way possible.

    Yeah you can definitely bully AI into giving you some thing that will run if you yell at it long enough. I don’t have that kind of patience

    Edit: typically I see it just silently dump errors to /dev/null if you complain about it not working lol
