The study investigates how users interact with ChatGPT for code generation beyond simple function-level tasks, focusing on project-level benchmarks that involve multi-class dependencies. A user study with 36 participants examined prompting patterns, screen recordings, and chat logs to identify Human‑LLM Interaction (HLI) features that influence productivity. The results highlight three consistently supportive HLI features, five guidelines to boost productivity, and a taxonomy of 29 runtime and logic errors with mitigation strategies.

The paper investigates how small lexical changes in prompts can cause large performance swings in large language models. Using a dataset of 132,000 prompt variants, the authors uncover a scaling law linking higher average task performance to lower variance and greater robustness. They identify domain-specific terminology and explicit action directives as key linguistic factors that stabilize prompts, and propose an automated Prompt-Refining Agent that reduces performance variance by 40.7% in code generation while maintaining or improving mean performance.

The paper presents a taxonomy-driven framework for identifying, categorizing, and explaining bias in AI-generated Python code. By extending an existing dataset and manually annotating bias categories and justifications, the authors evaluate both proprietary and open-source large language models (LLMs) for automated bias detection and explanation. Results show that models such as Gemini and Qwen3-coder achieve high classification accuracy and produce justification and code identification similarities that closely match human-authored reasoning.
