Code repentances are the minimum dangerous form of errors in LLM

Code repentances are the minimum dangerous form of errors in LLM

2nd March 2025

A strange common complaint I have seen from developers using LLMs for a noble invention in a way of inventing a method of inventing a method for a tool for writing code. How can anyone effectively use these things when they invent the ways that are gone?

Code activities are the least harmful nobles you can face from a model.

True risk from using LLMS for code so they can make mistakes not immediately obtained by the compiler or translator. And it happened all the time!

Once you run the Code of LLM Create, any Hallucuated methods then clearly: you get an error. You can heal yourself or you can feed the mistake back to LLM and see it correct himself.

Compare them with the tasks of regular prose, where you need a critical eye, strong intuitions and well-developed investigation facts that are invalid and directly harm your reputation.

With the code you get a powerful form of evaluating the fact free. Run the code, let’s see if it works.

In some setups-Chatgpt Code Translator,, Claude CodeAny of the increased system of “Agentic” code that wrote and then implemented the code in a loop-the LLM system itself can determine the error.

If you are using an LLM to write the code it has not run on your own, What are you doing?

Hallucuced methods as a small road road that when people complain about them I think there is little time to use these systems – they dropped it at first full.

My cynical suspects suspects that they might seek a reason to take off technology and jumped at first they found.

My less cynical side believes that no one warns of them that you need to put a lot of work to know how good results come from these systems. I was checking their applications for writing code For more than two years now and I have learned new tricks (and new strengths and weaknesses) almost every day.

The Mano Testing Code is important

Just because the code looks good and running without mistakes doesn’t mean it really does the right thing. There is no amount of the code surveying code – or even comprehensive automated trials – proves that the code actually created the right thing. You have to run it yourself!

Prove yourself that the code works is your job. This is one of the many reasons I don’t think LLMS will be placed in software professionals unemployed.

LLM code usually looks fantastic: Good variable names, convincing comments, clearly typical annotations and a logical structure. You can be able to be a false security understanding, in the same way that a correct grammar is right and confident response from ChatGPT can be tempted to skip to actual checking or applying a skeptical eye.

The way to avoid that Problems are the same as how you can avoid problems with other people’s code you check, or code you write yourself: You need to actively work out that code. You need to have more QA skills.

A general rule for programming is what you need never Trust in any piece of code until you see it working on your own eye – or, better, it’s seen it failed and then it was healed.

In the entire career in my whole career, I’m about to be some codes moving without active implementation – an error message I didn’t expect – or I didn’t regret that mind.

Tips for reducing nobles

If you really see a flood of obscene details of the code LLMS that makes for you, there’s a set of things you can do about it.

  • Try different models. It may be that another model has better training data for your selected platform. As a Python and JavaScript programmer my favorite models today is Claude 3.7 sonnet with an Opeiai’s O3-mini-high translation (for Python).
  • Learn how the context uses. If a LLM does not know a particular library you will always fix it by passing some dozen lines in the example. LLMs are very good at imitating things, and in rapidly taking patterns from limited examples. The modern model of increasingly increasingly increasingly context with Windows-i newly begins using Claude’s new Join Github To break down the entire context repositories and it works very much for me.
  • choose boring technology. I actually find myself picking off libraries that are about to go with a time because that way is more likely to be used in LLMS.

I’ll finish this rant with related observation: I’ll keep seeing people saying “if I need to review each line of a LLM to write, it’s easier to write it on my own!”

Those people have stated loudly that they do not minimize the important skill in reading, understanding and reviewing the code written by other people. I suggest get some more practice on. Writing the code written for you by llms is a great way to do that.


Section of bonus: I asked Claude 3.7 sonnet “extended thought mode” to review an early draft of this post- “Review my rant of a blog entry. I want to know if the argument is convincing, small changes I can make to improve it, if there are things I've missed.“. This is very helpful, especially to give tips to make the first draft of a little confront! Because you can chat Claude Chats today Here’s that transcript.
