ChatGPT Mistakes, Does It Produces Buggy Code?
Is ChatGPT ready to supplant developers?
ChatGPT, as well as other tools such as Copilot, have been proposed to help humans in programming tasks. You can simply test by typing a programming task, such as “write a python function to compute the least common multiple”. You will receive something like this:
Therefore, this tool may be incredible powerful for learning or increasing developers productivity. However, this paper has analyze the influcen from AI code assistant in developers [1]. This study concluded that developers who used AI assistants were more likely to introduce vulnetabililties or buggy code into their solutions.
For example, the authors of this paper found that developers with AI assistants produced more security vulnerabilities (such as SQL Injtections) than developres without acces to AI assistants. This was also checked in this article.
