1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen.
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

What would happen if you pasted ChatGPT's own code into it?

Actually, a complier is complete when it finally compiles itself. Before that a "helper" language is used. I think for Rust, C++ has been used until it was able to compile itself.

It'd pass it off as it's own work and give it to the next homework question asker.

So Improve means "condense it down" or "add back a line deliberately commented out".
I feel like all this "pass it through GPT" is leading everyone in circles. It's absolutely doing a fantastic job of taking text (prose, code, whatever) and producing a version that best matches its training data and bias. It spits out great looking text and generates code that is either the most commonly found code for this text prompt, or the code it was trained to produce. This will just get better and better.
But it is still about "most likely". Not "actually correct" and so we generate this great looking code and then spend all this time running around debugging and correcting.
Definitely good to start from something that's well structured and fix that, but let's put this in perspective. (and saying that, the fact it can even do this is mind blowing at a conceptual level, but disarmingly trivial at the mathematical level if you're OK with thinking trillion-parameter simultaneous equations are trivial. All in all a proper mind-bend).
cheers

I'd agree - but I don't think our jobs / whole profession is at risk yet.
It is likely affecting this site though: QA is well down on student question numbers, and that's probably them plagiarising ChatGPT code ...
