    gollark: GPT-3 apparently was able to generate valid code if prompted properly.
    gollark: I don't think "what if we autogenerated programs" is a hugely original idea. It's just very hard.
    gollark: There's a neat easy thing to train GPT-2 instances. I did that with my discord messages.
    gollark: Those are used for inferencing, not training, and stuff has worked fine for ages without them.
    gollark: Not really.
