I ended up having to type hundreds of lines of description to get thousands of lines of code that doesn't actually work, when the one I wrote myself is about two dozen lines of code and works perfectly.
It just seems such a slow and inefficient way to work.
The problem is that I want something that listens on a TCP connection for GD92 packets, and when they arrive send appropriate handshaking to the other end and parse them into Go structs that can be stuffed into a channel to be dealt with elsewhere.
And, of course, something to encode them and send them again.
How would I do that with whatever AI you choose?
I'm pretty certain you can't solve this with AI because there is literally no published example of code to do it that it can copy from.
I've also been underwhelmed with its ability to iterate, as it tends to pile on hacks. So another useful question is "did you try having it write again with what you/it learned?"
