Chat.GPT

I asked Chat:GPT to write a GLBasic program, that shows a starfield, and, with the exception of CLS instead of CLEARSCREEN, it just worked out of the box. Awesome

[bigsofty]

Wow, kinda scarey but wow! 

[Qedo]

So is our fun over? let's hope that at least the imagination is lacking

[Kitty Hello]

I think it's a good addition to the manual. But it's never going to create a game. Especially if you have a new idea.

Ooh that's good. I'm amazed it recognises languages out of the mainstream. Could be useful for when I forget little bits of syntax.

Chatgpt is my buddy 

Note, it even gave example 
Me to ChatGPT:

I need a math formula, GLBasic TYPE coding, planet orbit physics, for finding the Orbital Semi-Major Axis.

Code (glbasic) Select Expand

TYPE Orbit
    average_distance%  // Average distance between the planet and its central body
    eccentricity%     // Eccentricity of the orbit

    FUNCTION CalculateSemiMajorAxis: ()
        LOCAL semi_major_axis
        semi_major_axis = (2 * average_distance%) / (1 - POW(eccentricity%, 2))
        RETURN semi_major_axis
    ENDFUNCTION
ENDTYPE

// Usage example
GLOBAL Orbit AS Orbit
Orbit.average_distance = 10  // Example value for average_distance
Orbit.eccentricity = 0.5    // Example value for eccentricity

LOCAL semi_major_axis
semi_major_axis = Orbit.CalculateSemiMajorAxis()
PRINT "Semi-Major Axis: " + semi_major_axis


This is wrong, FUNCTION CalculateSemiMajorAxis: ()
But ill let it slide by this time.

quite interesting. I asked to it to create a pong game for GLBasic and it seems, it is able to learn. But sometimes it's hard to explain exactly what I mean 

see chat her:

It did write a complete game of Pong!? That's so insane.

All that AI stuff evolved so much in couple last years.. We are on the verge of revolution in many aspects of creative work, such AI tools will replace many 'creative' professions and on other hand will create new ones.. Imagine if someone is writing a legit book and need some art for cover or as illustrations for new chapters, now he can use MindJurney by him self and get something interesting, on other hand artist can use such tools to fastly generate many different visions/sketches of some client idea and later use it as base for further work and so on.. AI can now write basic books (like motivation, biography, books for kids), but will not write large series or universe that makes cross reference (like Cosmere - by Brandon Sanderson), but could be used for new ideas or to make parts of narration. Maybe it would be usefully in writing some parts of more advanced code not only simpler examples (but fact that it already can write a working game in such niche language as GLB is stunning).

On my hand I'm interested in game asset creation, more particular sprites with animation or something that would be usefull in a game, yet still such AI models need a lot of training in that direction (and of course it will be hard to deliver competitive art for them). Those are couple examples generated with Leonardo AI with different creation models:
