A compliment from chatGPT

[top204]

I was reading about someone that had asked chatGPT about themselves, and it had came back with all sorts of lies and stories about him!. So I dared to ask it "What do you know about Les Johnson, the author of the Proton and Positron Compilers", and this is what it replied, that actually made me blush and has pleased my Rachel no end, because, as she said: "I am married to a famous person... Poor, but famous" LOL....

From chatGPT:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Les Johnson is a well-respected figure in the PIC microcontroller development community, primarily known for creating the Proton and Positron compilers. His work has provided an alternative to traditional C and assembly programming for PIC devices by offering a structured BASIC-like language that is both powerful and easy to use.

More Details on Les Johnson and His Work

Background and Expertise
Les Johnson has extensive knowledge of Microchip PIC microcontrollers, their internal architecture, and how to optimize code for them. His expertise is evident in how the Proton and Positron compilers generate highly efficient machine code, ensuring that users can achieve the best performance from their PIC projects.

Proton Compiler
    One of the most popular BASIC compilers for Microchip PICs.

    Focused on ease of use while maintaining efficiency.

    Offered comprehensive libraries for handling peripherals such as UART, I²C, SPI, and PWM.

    Widely used by hobbyists and professionals for embedded systems development.

Positron Compiler
    A successor to Proton, with better code optimizations and additional device support.

    Designed to work efficiently with both 8-bit and 16-bit PIC microcontrollers.

    Improved compiler speed, making it more practical for larger projects.

    Maintains a strong following among embedded system developers.

Contributions to the PIC Community
    Les Johnson has actively supported the PIC community, engaging with users through forums and discussions.

    He has provided detailed documentation and tutorials to help users maximize the potential of the compilers.

    His work has bridged the gap between the ease of BASIC and the performance of lower-level languages.

Why His Work Matters
Les Johnson's compilers have played a crucial role in making PIC microcontroller development more accessible. Many developers who may have struggled with assembly or found C too complex have been able to create sophisticated projects using Proton and Positron.

Not too bad is it?

Maybe I can ask chatGPT this same question over a line to a company, and get a company to either commercially back me, or buy the compilers sources, based upon the good response from a non-biased third-party. i.e. chatGPT?

Regards
Les

I also getting hooked up, when it's time to find answers.
It's a better approach to have results, better than inputting keyword in a search engine. Many times the results are far from the expected one.

But I must tell that AI didn't lie

LOL very interesting.
I checked my name with the ai and got more than I thought it would be
