do you used ai to generate codes in c? some observations or
thoughts maybe?

i used some first time in april this year and  generally
was schocked (ai (i mean chat gpt) i used in 2024 limited way
and in 2025 first time in more indepth talks)

i state this question becouse is quite big topic and i think it needs
some kind of dialectic thoughts/talk to get more indepth view on some
basics maybe

for me first case of shoc was how good it answers on programing related 
questions..for example it was able to generate complec winapi based
routines and even could warn me on gdi leaks and indepth and
hard to learn things like that

second piece of shoc it was that its able to generate quite big and
usable pieces of code..hovever it seems to have limitations

i probably noticed if you give him (or her, in polish its more like
her (as inteligence /inteligencja is female word)) a big block of code
to generate at once the probability of it having some errors seems to 
increase.. so maybe there is a limit.. hovever i gave him or her
a task of generating like 1000 line blocks of code andafter
some dose of talks and 'rerolls' it went quite well

it seems that if give it to generate smaller pieces it maybe work even 
better (though i must then integrate those pieces)

note i only use free chatgpt and possibly paid ones could be much better
but even this free version is shocking

some night a gave it a task to generate some cheap image codec and it 
manage to write quite complex piece of code on which by hand i probably 
need work a week or maybe even two (not only write but do some tests
and so on)..todaj i gave hima  task to writa app that draws chessboard 
with pices and a mechanic to move pieces on this board by mouse but
only in legal way (i mean white starts and only van make one of legal 
moves) then black only can move legal way and so on)..it spitted the 
code on the fly.. what he has problems was drawing sompe ches pieces
procedurally especialy knight he made a total mess and i even couldnt 
make him/her to made this task

in may i by the chznse also wanted to generate primitive based even 
aminmated 'sprites' in game and it was that some time it was making 
absolutelly stuning results and otherwise was making bad crap and i was 
unable to make him/her do it at least average or basic rights

and that how it looks like

some thoughts on ai? programing using it? its so important tool right 
now that in fact learning how to use it to work well/bbest is a basic
programming skill today imo
