The advent of AI-assisted programming (sometimes called “vibe programming”) enables researchers with little or no programming experience to create running programs. This is often referred to as programming from zero.  However, codes that run are often not codes that produce the correct result. This lecture introduces techniques for AI-assisted programming for checking correctness, correcting errors, and adding new features. Some prior programming experience is desirable, but not essential. We will be developing Python programs using Google Colab. You should check that you have access to this free service.
