This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

If you copy and paste from ChatGPT your code won't compile.

You need to know what the peices of code do and how to peice them together to make it work.

Which is kind of impossible to do without understanding it

Since version 4 it has no problem generating working code. The question is how complex the code can get etc. But currently with o1 (o3 mini perhaps a bit less) a dozen functions with 1000 lines of code are really possible without a flaw.

If I tell ChatGPT "write me a program in python that does X, Y, and Z" it will not output code that can be compiled or ran without editing
