stacksort VS stack-overflow-import

Ah, good ol' stacksort

Reminiscent of stacksort

Yea but is it better than stacksort?

How does that even work tho? Like, my understanding is that GPT is trained in a limited set of parameters and to add anything, you have to redo the whole training. Is it connected to google and just like a fancier version of Stacksort?

There is only one sorting algorithm Stacksort

Semi-related: Someone wrote a sort algorithm that searches StackOverflow for sorting functions and runs them until it returns the correct answer.

But blindly running stuff from SO is the road to success

Seven years after the StackOverflow Importer [1], I thought it was time to build an updated version using ChatGPT.

> time series forecasting using this tool.

Interesting. IME even for toy problems it generally spits out code which fails to do what I requested some of the time or at all. Using this tool to solve a problem requires not only that I understand what it spits out but also that I understand how to actually solve the problem, so that I can iterate on the rubbish it spits out.

It doesn't seem frightening or particularly transformative; I'm not even convinced that using it could save more time than not. It's not doing anything radically different to https://github.com/drathier/stack-overflow-import and the latter works better.

I welcome evil players attempting to use it: their evil plans will self-destruct in hilarious ways.
