This makes sense - they are demonstrating the capability of their core product by doing so? They dont make browsers, c compilers, they sell ai + dev tools.

Seems like a poor advertisement for their product if their shining example of utility is a broken compiler that doesn't function as the README indicates.

Impressive that it made a c compiler though? Or do we judge all programmers by their documentation now?

All it took was all the C compilers they could scrape into their training set.

It’s not impressive in the sense that it’s doing what it was designed to.

It just happens that it generated a C compiler that kind of worked.

Someone came by later and used more AI on it to make it closer to a production grade C compiler like gcc/clang.

Saying, “it made a C compiler,” is not specific enough.

Capability of a product that makes non-working outputs at a premium?

I can hire an intern for that.

Will cost you a lot more ;)
