Whaaaaaat? Is coding now a satanic ritual? Of course not, but what about AI? GenAI is on the rise and has already made it’s way to software development. Wether it is ChatGPT<\/a> or GitHub CoPilot<\/a>. Let’s have a tiny look at both of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is ChatGPT? Well, lets ask this question ChatGPT:<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

So let’s find out what is happening if we want ChatGPT to write some code \ud83d\ude09 We want to have, obviously, an inverted pentagram. If we ask Google for a picture we get…. what else… a pentagram with one edge pointing downwards.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

So now lets ask ChatGPT to draw an inverted pentagram with the help of python. In this case we use ChatGPT 3.5 with a very easy prompt.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

On the first sight the code looks quite decent. We can see the background set to “black” and the lines (pencolor) to “red” as requested. There is a for-loop to draw the five lines, but the line “pentagram_turtle.right(144)” indicates me, that this will be a regular pentagram.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

So I asked ChatGPT to correct it’s “mistake”.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

On the first look, this one looks exactly like the first result, but it’s not. The tiny change was to let the turtle move backwards and alter the starting point.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Let’s see what copilot is doing with same request.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

The result looks quite similar to the one produced by ChatGPT. Colours are correct, five lines and we have the same algorithm for the movement for the turtle….yep… a regular pentagram. <\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"\"<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

So I asked CoPilot as well to make it upside down….but:\"\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same result, only the starting point of the turtle has changed, the pentagram is still the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tiny conclusion: The code is runnable in both cases, ChatGPT was able to correct it’s mistake. Maybe drawing pictures with a programming language is not the right approach to test the capabilities of GenAI for coding. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
