If a human can access your public repo and read comments posted on public forums, are they stealing your code? LLMs are just aggregators of a great many resources and they aren’t doing anything more than a biological human can already do. The LLM can do so more efficiently than a biological human, while perhaps being more prone to error as it doesn’t completely understand why something is written the way it is. As such any current AI model is prone to signpost errors, but in my experience it has been very good at organizing the broader solution.
I can give you two examples. I started trying to find out how a .Net API call was made. I was trying to implement a retry logic for a call, and I got the answer I asked. I then realized that the AI could do more for me. I asked it to write the routine for me and it suggested using a library which is well suited for that purpose. I asked that it rewrite it without using an external library and it spit it out. I could have written this completely from scratch, in fact I had already come up with something similar but I was missing the API call I was initially looking for. That said, the result actually had some parts I would have had to go back and add, so it saved me a lot of time doing something I already knew how to do.
In a second case, I asked if to solve a problem which at its heart was a binary search. To validate that the answer was correct it would need to go one extra step, but to answer the question it wasn’t necessary to actually perform that last validation step. I was looking for the answer 10, but I got the AI to give me answers in the range of 9-11. It understand the basic concepts, but it still needs a biological human to validate what it generates.
Grandview seemed to do the best in clearly identifying the character 0. Is it an O, 0, I, l, or 1? Even without an example of O clearly visible in the sample text, the shape of 0 was very clear and seems like it should stand apart. Not the only reason to select a font, but it might be important to some.
