Is that fair to say?
And did, when you started that project, did you have a sense of what the code was probably going to look like?
This was not a yak shape.

um yeah it's interesting a lot of these uh sort of attributes or these qualities that we attribute to lm generated code are all things that as we're talking about like i've associated with other colleagues i'll just i'll provide an example i just mean when you're doing a code review brian i think my guess is like
