I gave GPT-4 some source code and my existing tests, and asked it to write a new test, and it did it! It didn’t even run straight away, I had to fix it, but it still blew my mind.

Later, I wrote a ~5k line proxy for work in C, and gave the whole thing to ChatGPT o1 and asked it to review it. It found several real memory bugs, and now that service has been running since with no problems.

Just this week, I was trying to write a greedy solver to pick the best subset of block sizes to keep from a larger sweep for shorter testing. Opus 4.8 suggested that this could actually be solved as a MILP problem, and found the perfect solution in 5 mins. I’d never even heard of MILP before.
