I just tried chatgpt(5) on a tough cryptography coding challenge with a very limited prompt [1] and its response was basically perfect.

We're screwed.

[1] In case you're curious it was: "Implement the inner product argument as described in Bulletproofs 2017 (authored by Benedikt Bunz et al), in Python".

I asked AI to do some basic financial planning and it dropped the ball hard. Then I asked it to find the current price of bitcoin and it crashed. We're going to be alright.

True. This was only half serious.

Only 2 weeks ago I did a similar experiment and noted how it was kinda dangerous; you can prompt it to go in entirely the wrong direction and then it will very confidently do the wrong thing, which is not ideal in cryptography!
