Has anyone tried AI with PICBASIC

[lester]

OpenAI does NOT know PICBASIC.

It says it does, but NO

It does however grapple with Bash Script, Python etc very very well.

I have been testing in the OpenAi playground and in ChatGPT , comparing my Python and Bash Script routines to that produced by OpenAi.

Its very very good.

It has also been useful in helping debug , and reduce code size.

When creating new routines its like having a mentor , helping me along and making suggestions that aide my progress.

If it had a good handle on PICBASIC, most of the "How do I do" questions on this forum would be answered with code examples and plain english explainations, ..... it would be a great integration.

Mining big data and making life descisions on the results will enhance humans. This is just the start.

Its not intelligent , or sentient, its just a machine regurgitating stuff, faster than I can think and search and refine. Its a great help.

So can we teach AI some PICBASIC?I have a simple code request - some routine is runningbut you need to "freeze" all action going (screen update), when user press buttonand "unfreeze" it when user presses button again.Sounds simple, but I'm stuck, if AI could wrote a code for that - that will be good...

I work at university, and students using AI for their research and homework are causing very serious issues.

What type of work do you do at that university and which university is it, if you don't mind me asking?

I've never been to one (university, that is), less worked at one but a collegue of mine, whos wife works at a Swedish highschool (not university) said that they started to notice this "AI" being used among some of the students. It's just that that the students using it didn't seem to have any "I" what so ever of their own because after years of underperforming they were all of a sudden delivering essays containing loads of words that they just last month could not even spell or, even less, know the meaning of.

The world is full of cheaters and people wanting to take the easy way. Heck, it's not like we're all here to just GIVE advise, is it?

i wonder how many unique responses the ai can give to to the same or similarly worded request, imagination not being a known computer attribute. according to arduino forum chatgpt supplied C++ code for arduino is not particularly useful or clever and may not even be functionable.

I work at local university, name of which won't ring a bell for anyone, and I'm not going mention it here, because I don't like google indexing everything I'm head of a mechanical workshop - we have various sorts of machinery - CNC, laser, 3D printing, woodworking, metalworking, etc. Students come to workshop to make things necessary for their projects - pcb, wood cabinet, some metal parts, casting/molding, etc. Exams are conducted in controlled environment and electronically, so students simply can't cheat - there is no internet, no phones allowed, questions are random and so on, but when it comes to junior/senior project, essays, etc, they do started to use AI and this is very disturbing.

I did a test run on the chatGPT in my language and it took 3-10 seconds to reply, I guess because it tried to translate (not very succesfully) in greek. When questions became more serious and difficult it just started to answer in english! It was a bit funny!

But I still wonder why they call it "intelligence" when the machine itslelf does not specify it as intelligence but as machine learning with big database...

As a machine learning it will progress in learning more and more new things, like better arduino code. But I am sure it will never have imagination as Richard noted, or ability to create something with a feeling, warmth or depth. It is stuck to follow knowledge and rules, so it will create new things on the previous as copy and paste with more different shades if I may say.

Things move at the speed of light... Cannot follow!

Very interesting Lester! Are these API ready to be embedded in forums like ours?

[lester]

I have access to the playground and tyhe API, so the answer is YES.
As I say, im tied up in March and first week of April, but I will look at this and the off line forum in April.

[Ioannis]

I am not pushing. Just very curious about that. Very fast moving tech.
