Our take is, as long as A.I. can't generate code without ANY mistake, it isn't A.I. After all, we are talking about computer languages where 'interpretation' is worth zero. It's not like we're writing a poem Just imagine asking it to write an algorithm to give a certain amount of medicine to a person (where every single thing is important about this person) and the A.I. code just ommits an ELSE branch because it 'looks' better. The horror ... No thanks.

I've learned to include "do not make assumptions" in my prompts. It always does that. Refactor code without being told etc etc, it's *loko* (mexican accent) I tell you.

I just think the world is inventing a "Terminator". We are aware we are but we are doing it anyway. For some its working, I was reading how an AI influencer who creates music was signed up by one of these music companies. Strange times.

Thanks for your comment, aeric.
I tried using ChatGPT and I failed, even after giving it very detailed instructions on what should be done. However, I did get something valuable out of it: the database .


I think AI is not perfect and most of the time we will run into errors if we expect it to build a complete system from start to finish. For many developers, especially newcomers, this can be frustrating. The good thing is that we can always go back to the traditional way, and sometimes that turns out to be much simpler.

I tend to think there is just a lot of hype around tools AI right now. Yes, some are able to deliver on promises made and some not.

The biggest hurdle though is prompt engineering. You speak with a baby, baby talk and not adult talk for example. I think these tools expect some kind of structure in what we ask for it to understand things clearly, otherwise it goes around in circles. Anyway, even if one does provide some context, still get goobly gook.

Anyway, is one site I found today where all of these models are in one place and one can feed prompts. Will check it out.


And there is "Nano Banana", a lot is happening.

In the video, I made a typo error for Supplier -> Suppplier
I also found a bug in Web Handler.txt Code Snippet in WebApiUtils.b4xlib
