An undocumented bug in the Apollo 11 guidance computer code

This is an ad for their "AI" tools. It's funny that they could review the Apollo guidance system software, but couldn't run a spellchecker on their advertisement.
It's not often a bug report comes with such a riveting what-if tale.
This is the sort of thing where I think this new generation of ML tools can really excel: taking documentation and code and finding where they don't match. It still needs a living being to tell which one is right as sometimes the docs are and sometimes the code is, but it's certainly an incredibly powerful assistive tool when wielded this way.
My hope is that we see more of these sorts of tools coming out, and less of the "vibe coding" stuff that gives an air of productivity improvement but ends up making more work (now, reviewing it, or later, fixing it).
