Can we add an AI to help debug code for people? 🐐

…  
That would seem rough  
It can cause ruckus if not used correctly.  
You’ve seen the potential of AI going to waste, right?

I bet VS Code would have something for that, but idk about blocks, and it would probably be pretty expensive to have something like that. Considering you have to pay for most CoPilot features, this would probably be a paid feature, if not for users, then for Makecode/Microsoft.

Another win for coding in TypeScript I guess…? (I’ve never used AI to write code for me so idk how I even feel about something like that being in Makecode. You also have to consider that Makecode is for people learning to code, so having an AI code for you isn’t really compatible with that goal)

If you use the VS Code extension then you can just use the GitHub Copilot extension on top of it as well. Although I can’t imagine there are many MakeCode programs out there for the AI to have trained on and to generate good enough code…

YOUR TOPIC LINE TERRIFIED ME I thought it was official 😭  
IMO, we would not want AI-generated code or AI-generated pixel art in Makecode. The platform is entirely based on learning to code and express yourself rather than churning out quick content.  
(But of course, this is an opinion not a fact, and It’s up to the mods)

Uhhhhh Here is an image made with ai about how it is going to be

i appreciate that this ai has decided to sidestep the “nintendo or microsoft button layout” debate entirely by coming up with something that’s… uh… very original

Yeah I don’t want ai generated projects I only want it for debugging. I’ve ran into a errors that just say error and don’t say what block it came from so I think an AI debugger could help fix issues like that so it automatically debugs your code.

If ya want AI then use Scratch 4.0 when it comes out  
I heard they were planning to add “creative AI” to the software.

i want makecode arcade to have absolutely nothing to do with anything AI generated  
thats just avoiding teaching people, which is the exact opposite of what makecode arcade is trying to do

I think those are supposed to be the menu and reset buttons?
