Programma in BASIC scritto dall'intelligenza artificiale

Artificial intelligence ChatGPT OpenAI is able to write a program in BASIC for the Commodore 64?

Try!

In This short video, I recorded the first attempts. I requested two programs in BASIC for the Commodore 64: a FOR cycle and, then, also a more complex programme.

Il risultato è stato ottimo, anche se ho riscontrato un paio di errori nel programma più complesso: il gioco "sasso, carta, forbice". La scelta del secondo programma ("sasso, carta, forbice") è stata a discrezione dell'intelligenza artificiale Chat GPT-3.

We repeat the experiment: we ask for programs in basic artificial intelligence

From the ChatGPT main page, we request a BASIC program for the Commodore 64, which contains a FOR loop. Although I request the program using the English language, you can also use your native language.

The program listing is as follows, very simple.

10 FOR I = 1 TO 10
20 PRINT I
30 NEXT I
40 END

In itself, the program works well and has no problems. Riga 40 is superfluous, given that the program would end equally, even without education END. Let's see the execution of the program onVICE emulator for Commodore 64.

Programma in BASIC: "sasso, carta, forbice"

Per complicare un po' la vita all'intelligenza artificiale Chat GPT di Open AI, ho richiesto un programma più complesso. Il primo tentativo, è quello che abbiamo visto nel video breve. Non funzionava immediatamente. Successivamente, ho riprovato a chiedere il programma del gioco "sasso, carta, forbice". In questo caso, il programma funziona senza problemi.

The program listing is as follows:

10 PRINT "ROCK, PAPER, SCISSORS!"
20 INPUT "YOUR CHOICE (R/P/S)"; A$
30 IF A$ = "R" THEN PRINT "ROCK": GOTO 60
40 IF A$ = "P" THEN PRINT "PAPER": GOTO 60
50 IF A$ = "S" THEN PRINT "SCISSORS": GOTO 60
55 PRINT "INVALID CHOICE, TRY AGAIN"
56 GOTO 20
60 REM Computer's choice
70 B = INT(RND(1)*3)
80 IF B = 0 THEN PRINT "COMPUTER CHOSE ROCK"
90 IF B = 1 THEN PRINT "COMPUTER CHOSE PAPER"
100 IF B = 2 THEN PRINT "COMPUTER CHOSE SCISSORS"
110 REM Determine the winner
120 IF A$ = "R" AND B = 0 THEN PRINT "TIE": GOTO 150
130 IF A$ = "R" AND B = 1 THEN PRINT "COMPUTER WINS": GOTO 150
140 IF A$ = "R" AND B = 2 THEN PRINT "YOU WIN": GOTO 150
150 IF A$ = "P" AND B = 0 THEN PRINT "YOU WIN": GOTO 180
160 IF A$ = "P" AND B = 1 THEN PRINT "TIE": GOTO 180
170 IF A$ = "P" AND B = 2 THEN PRINT "COMPUTER WINS": GOTO 180
180 IF A$ = "S" AND B = 0 THEN PRINT "COMPUTER WINS": GOTO 210
190 IF A$ = "S" AND B = 1 THEN PRINT "YOU WIN": GOTO 210
200 IF A$ = "S" AND B = 2 THEN PRINT "TIE": GOTO 210
210 END

The program is very interesting, also because it was completely generated by artificial intelligence. What will programmers be used for in the future?

Apart from the consideration already made relating to education END, the command is missing to reset the random numbers generator. This command was in the first version of the program, seen in the short video. He was wrong, but there was. In this second version, it is missing.

Let's see the execution of the program onVICE emulator for Commodore 64.
