Tried basic embedded tasks a week ago: Complete trainwreck.

From using I2C to read out the internal temperature sensor on a Puya F030 (retested with an STM MCU and AVR: same answer but F030 replaced by STM32F103 within the code) to calling the WCH CH32V307 made by STM utilizing ARM M4.

After telling it to not use I2C it gave a different answer. Once more gibberish that looked like code.

What made this entirely embarrassing all a human would need to solve the question would be copy-pasting the question into Google and clicking the first link to the manufacturer example project/code hosted on GitHub.

Today it randomly decided to hide the results from some code that was supposed to be returned from a function. I asked it why it chose to hide the results and it couldn't tell me, it just apologized and then gave me the code without the hide logic. Pretty strange actually since we had been working on the code for half an hour and then all of the sudden it just decided to hide it all on its own.
