Issue with LLM generated code*

When I was a professor I always found it harder to debug code written by my students as compared with debugging code I had created myself. This is now even more of an issue when I try to debug code created by an LLM**. 

* See my blog of 1 January 2025.

** No, coding is not "solved." That's the capitalists lying again. There are still lots of bugs to find and fix.

I am glad to see the effort and resources currently being spent on A.I., robotics, and space travel. I don't expect that these efforts will produce anywhere near what's being promised of course. Each of these efforts is currently too narrowly focused, they should all be more broadly based.
