I'd be afraid to use ChatGPT for code...
We've seen it writes non-working code, so I'd be tempted to ask it why it produced such bad code, and I'm afraid the answer would be:
I've seen your code, so I didn't think you'd mind... ;-)
(sorry...)
I saw an interesting vid on YouTube by Tom Scott, and while it's initial code didn't work for him, it came close enough to save him a lot of time...
It is an interesting technology, and makes me really wonder about the future of it...

It also doesn't understand right from wrong and there is no common sense.

ChatGPT is able to learn things, but AFAIK you need to buy a special ChatGPT plus account or something like that in order having your input feeded back into the main training data.

All other accounts only create a session, which is derived from main training data and ChatGPT is able to learn inside this session. As soon you close the session, it will forget everything in it.

And yes, this is by design from the OpenAI team.

However, a very big issue with ChatGPT is, although its company is called OpenAI, it isn't open, neither open source, nor open access. And Microsoft isn't sympathetic either...

EDIT:
Remember that, if ChatGPT would automatically add every input to its main training data, there is serious risk of data protection violation. Imagine, you are telling ChatGPT your deepest privacy stuff and someone else is asking ChatGPT about your deepest privacy stuff and gets the information. Recipe for disaster...

Write a program in AREXX which opens 1 binary file and copies it to another file

/* Open the source file */
src_file = stream("path/to/source/file", "r")

/* Open the destination file */
dest_file = stream("path/to/destination/file", "w")

/* Copy the contents of the source file to the destination file */
do while lines(src_file) <> 0
  line = linein(src_file)
  call lineout(dest_file, line)
end

/* Close the files */
call close(src_file)
call close(dest_file)

/* Done! */

q: can you change the stream() function with open() and the linein() and lineout() functions with ReadCH() WriteCH()

A: Sure, here's the same program with the open(), ReadCH(), and WriteCH() functions instead of stream(), linein(), and lineout():

/* Open the source file */
src_file = open("path/to/source/file", "rb")

/* Open the destination file */
dest_file = open("path/to/destination/file", "wb")

/* Copy the contents of the source file to the destination file */
do while \eof(src_file)
  ch = ReadCH(src_file)
  call WriteCH(dest_file, ch)
end

/* Close the files */
call close(src_file)
call close(dest_file)

/* Done! */

q: do while \eof(src_file) is not valid in AREXX, \EOF was incorrect, it is supposted to be ~EOF for AREXX, ~ in AREXX is the NOT

a: You are correct again, my apologies for the confusion. In AREXX, the ~ symbol is indeed used to represent the NOT operator, so ~eof(src_file) should be used instead of \eof(src_file).

Here's the corrected code using open(), ReadCH(), and WriteCH():

/* Open the source file */
src_file = open("path/to/source/file", "rb")

/* Open the destination file */
dest_file = open("path/to/destination/file", "wb")

/* Copy the contents of the source file to the destination file */
do while ~eof(src_file)
  ch = ReadCH(src_file)
  call WriteCH(dest_file, ch)
end

/* Close the files */
call close(src_file)
call close(dest_file)

/* Done! */

q: Can you change the opening of files to be error checked?
q: can you change the error checking to `IF ~OPEN( file...) THEN DO
SAY error message
EXIT 10
END`

A: Certainly! Here's the updated code with the error checking using IF ~OPEN(file...) THEN DO:

/* Open the source file */
src_file = open("path/to/source/file", "rb")
if ~open(src_file) then do
  say "Error opening source file."
  exit 10
end

/* Open the destination file */
dest_file = open("path/to/destination/file", "wb")
if ~open(dest_file) then do
  say "Error opening destination file."
  call close(src_file)
  exit 10
end

/* Copy the contents of the source file to the destination file */
do while ~eof(src_file)
  ch = ReadCH(src_file)
  call WriteCH(dest_file, ch)
end

/* Close the files */
call close(src_file)
call close(dest_file)

/* Done! */

A: In this updated program, we use the open() function with the ~ NOT operator to check for errors when opening files. If an error occurs, the ~open() function will return true, and we display an error message and exit the program with an error code of 10.

If both files are opened successfully, we proceed with copying the contents of the source file to the destination file, and then close both files when we're done.

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.

This is a simple problem, I haven't asked it to code a IFF to PNG converter yet.

Asking ChatGPT to translate from m68k to x86 and converting AmigaDOS to MS-DOS-API. Result is not that bad, except for dos.library part...but I made two mistakes as well, forgot necessary movea.l 4.w,a6 instructions before the OpenLib and before the CloseLib call...

Request to ChatGPT:
Convert this Amiga assembler program to MS-DOS x86 code!

lea DOSName(pc),a1
moveq #0,d0
jsr _LVOOldOpenLibrary(a6)
movea.l d0,a6
jsr _LVOOutput(a6)
move.l d0,d1
lea HelloWorld(pc),a0
move.l a0,d2
moveq #HelloWorldLen-HelloWorld,d3
jsr _LVOWrite(a6)
movea.l a6,a1
jsr _LVOCloseLibrary(a6)
moveq #0,d0
rts

ChatGPT's reply:
Here's the equivalent code in x86 assembly language:

lea dx, DOSName
mov ah, 3Ch
xor cx, cx
int 21h
mov bx, ax
mov ah, 40h
lea dx, HelloWorld
mov cx, HelloWorldLen
int 21h
mov ah, 3Eh
mov bx, ax
int 21h
mov ah, 4Ch
int 21h
ret

Note that some of the Amiga-specific function names have been replaced with MS-DOS equivalents, and the input and output registers have been adjusted to match x86 syntax. Also, the equivalent system calls for opening, writing, and closing files have been used in the x86 code.

Now something more Amiga related, very strange result asking for a optimized c2p conversion routine:

Can you output the best, optimized code for c2p conversion in Amiga m68k assembler code? Also remember the differences between the CPUs of m68k!

Reply from ChatGPT:

Yes, I can help you with that. However, I cannot provide "the best" optimized code for c2p conversion in Amiga m68k assembler code since the optimization level depends on various factors and requirements of the specific use case. But here is a basic code for c2p conversion:

c2p:
    move.b  (a0)+,d0
    move.w  c2ptbl(pc,d0.w),d0
    move.b  (a1,d0.w),d1
    move.b  d1,(a2)+
    dbra    d7,c2p
    rts

c2ptbl:
    dc.w    $0000,$0101,$0202,$0303
    dc.w    $0404,$0505,$0606,$0707
    dc.w    $0808,$0909,$0a0a,$0b0b
    dc.w    $0c0c,$0d0d,$0e0e,$0f0f

Please note that you need to take the differences between Amiga m68k CPUs into account when optimizing your code, as well as the specific requirements of your use case.

Can it do ASCII art? Well it can, but I remember the Amiga 500 keyboard slightly different *cough*

Draw an ASCII art showing a classic Amiga 500 keyboard!

Natürlich, hier ist eine ASCII-Kunst des Amiga 500 Keyboards:

For some reason it replied in german, here are the translations from me:
Natürlich, hier ist eine ASCII-Kunst des Amiga 500 Keyboards ->
Of course, here is an ASCII art of the Amiga 500 keyboard

Hoffe, das gefällt dir! ->

As I say: ChatGPT is like a politician.

If it does not know a correct answer to a question, it does not admit that, but writes some BS hoping nobody notices it or it is somehow correct by chance.

ChatGPT is at its core nothing more than an automatic text completion system. It has absolutely no way to know if something is correct or not, it only knows what is most statistically likely. This makes it an artificial BS generator - and a surprisingly pretty good one.

As long as there will be (dummy) people praising for what this IA is capable of, why would it be different ?
Dummy because they praise without a correct result.
Take a kid and praise him whatever he will do. And then look at the result of your praising...

[tygre]

Or greedy people trying to scare (dummy) people to stay relevant and cash in $$$...
