Sure, it's easier to solve an easier problem, news at eleven. In particular, translating from C# to Java could probably be automated with some 90% accuracy using a decent sized bash script.


I once redid a project from VB.Net to C# and pretty much did that.

People misjudge many tasks as 'hard' when they are in fact easy but tedious.

The problem is you need a high degree of accuracy, which you don't get with LLMs.

The best you can do is set the LLM on a loop and try and Brute force it, which is the current vibe 'coding' trick.

I sound pessimistic but I'm actually shocked at how effective it is.
