Wow, the text generator that doesn't actually understand what it's "writing" is making mistakes? Who could have seen that coming?

I once asked one to write a basic 50-line Python program (just to flesh things out), and it made so many basic errors that any first-year CS student could catch. Nobody should trust LLMs with anything related to security, FFS.

I like using it like a rubber ducky. I even have it respond almost entirely in quacks.

Note: it's a local model running for free. Don't pay anyone for this slop.
