    The prompts provided are atrocious. It's amazing that the LLMs actually built something useful.

    > My first prompt was simple: "in this original code there 6502 assembly code for prince of persia, use the save level files and try to do it in c# console."

    Do what in the what now in the console?

      It's so confusing how the actual article is in English, but the prompts are just gibberish. But LLMs are pretty good at deciphering gibberish; I often put our CEO's absolutely atrocious E-Mails into ChatGPT and tell it to explain wtf he wants from me.

      Also, I feel like the LLMs would have done better if they had started from scratch each time, rather than being burdened by the output from the previous attempt.
