This AI Does Your Computer Science Homework...kinda

IMPORTANT NOTE: I am NOT advocating that this tool be used in place of actual learning; this is merely pointing out the existence of such a tool, and that we as a community should discuss not only its existence but also where and when this tool could be useful.

Here we look at OpenCodex AI (https://beta.openai.com/overview) which has amazing capabilities. Essentially if you provide a "reasonable" query to it, such as that you want to solve a particular problem, it is able to do it. This video looks at it through the lens of theoretical computer science, but it can certainly do programming homework queries. The main issue is that while it is astoundingly good, it's very often "wrong" by a small (or even large) amount. Plus on the theory side, it doesn't get some of the "harder" problems that aren't covered either by this channel or others.
