Just because it's overhyped doesn't mean that it's not useful. And just because 
it doesn't have understanding today doesn't mean that it never will. Making a 
pun on the name doesn't mean that I consider it useless or unimportant.

The issues generating HLASM code are real, but that stems from inadequate data 
during training rather than design defects.

The same people who said the mainframe is dead in 1993, are likely the same 
ones now downplaying AI. NVIDIA is the highest market cap company that ever 
existed. What do they make? Graphics Processing Units for AI data centers. Who 
is buying them? The largest tech companies in the world. AI is here and it’s 
going to impact everything.

How good is the training? Can it generate a working HLASM program? Locate 
specific editions of PoOps?

i tried CoPilot only because it was part of my mandatory training this year. i 
was curious whether it would mess up as badly as ChaatGPT (It's a typo. That's 
my story and I'm sticking to it.)

How about the best of both worlds - google AI?  I went searching for a very 
specific "can I do this" type question regarding surcharges on retail purchases 
with credit cards and a specific CC clearinghouse.  Google AI came back with a 
"yes you can do that" and about 3 items down the hit list, the specific 
clearing house' web site pops up with "no you can't do that".

Let’s be honest.  It’s not sentient.  Processed a lot of information and 
indexes it to define relationships and is a better search than google.
Apart from that I think people are expecting perfection but it is imperfect but 
pretty dang impressive
