It was trained on numerous Leetcode solutions (question/answer), which you can find on GitHub. People are proud of their Leetcode efforts: they post their solutions, as if it is an achievement.

Now tell me, how many of the BUGFIX-66 problems can it solve?

Copilot can solve a few of the simple ones at the beginning (simple matrix multiplication, simple radix sort, etc., that appear often in the training data, and some of the harder ones whose solution appears on GitHub, e.g., the uncorrected prediction/correction compressor/decompressor whose solutions were front-page on Hacker News).

But as you go down the list, into material outside the training set, the language model won't be able to solve it.

Try it. Paste the tile, the introductory text, and the unfixed code, and see whether the omnipotent AI can solve these (quite straightforward) problems. For how many does it need the hint?



Let me check in a year
