00:22 ireallyhateirc is making a PR made with Github Copilot fine as long as the code works and is documented?
00:23 rubenwardy our AI policy can be found in the contributing.md
00:24 rubenwardy tl;dr   (1) you must disclose     (2) it's fine but you are responsible for the change like any other - "but the AI wrote it" is no excuse
00:29 ireallyhateirc I'm not really good at C++ but I can: 1. check if the code works 2. do a basic review (distinguish spaghetti code from ok code) 3. ask it to correct/explain some questionable things 4. rerun the model with additional info when things break
00:29 ireallyhateirc that said I know lua but C++ only partially
00:29 ireallyhateirc I've been testing Copilots's most advanced models and got working/good results in most cases as far as my understanding goes
00:30 ireallyhateirc One example being the last commit in this PR: https://github.com/luanti-org/luanti/pull/15730
00:31 ireallyhateirc example prompt: "Write core.generate_caves analogically to core.generate_biomes(), core.generate_ores(), core.generate_decorations(), and core.generate_biome_dust(). See how caves are generated in different mapgens (v7, v5, etc.). Make sure that caves are actually generated and applied to by vmanip."
00:34 ireallyhateirc I also tried it with the mapblock callback thing: https://github.com/kromka-chleba/minetest/pull/14
00:34 ireallyhateirc then asked it to write an example mod and it appears to 100% work
00:35 ireallyhateirc but yeah if that's fine with you then I'll probably try solving some issues that have been bugging me
