Generally only for small problems. Like things lower than 300 lines of code. And the problem generally can’t be a novel problem.

But that’s still pretty damn impressive for a machine.

Yeah. I'm so dang cranky about all the overselling, that how cool I think this stuff is often gets lost.

300 lines of boring code from thin air is genuinely cool, and gives me more time to tear my hair out over deployment problems.
