I bet the training data included enough space invader cloned in JS

Which would make this disappointing if it was only good at cloning space invaders. If it can reproduce all the clone it has ever seen it would still be an impressive feat.

I just think we should stop to appreciate exactly how awesome language models are. It's compressing and correctly reproducing a lot of data with meaningful context between each token and the rest of the context window. It's still amazing, specially with smaller models like this, because even if it's reproducing a clone, you can still ask questions about it and it should perform reasonably well explaining you what it does and how you can take it over to further develop that clone.

But that would still be copy and paste with extra steps.

Like all these vibe coded to do apps, one of the most used starting problems of programming courses.

It’s great that an AI can do that but it could stall progress if we get limited to existing tools and programs.
