AI hallucinations are getting worse – and they're here to stay

A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I pasted 1k line C++ file into Gemini, along with a screenshot and a trace log and asked it to find the bug. It reasoned for about 5 minutes. Extract of the solution:
It correctly identified that
sqrt(_v[0]*_v[0] + _v[1]*_v[1] + _v[2]*_v[2]);
had too low precision and usingstd::hypot(_v[0], _v[1], _v[2])
would likely solve it.If this is just autocomplete, then I agree that it's a pretty fancy one.
