[Haskell-cafe] GPT & Haskell

[Aloïs Cochard]

as he might to just randomly insert a bug or a security flaw???
I prefer to read poems by my human friends.

I highly recommend starting reading this paper at page 128 instead of

https://arxiv.org/pdf/2303.12712.pdf

Be ready for a good laugh

Sincerely yours
