Probably. At that point you might as well just copy/paste the existing compiler though. The temperature is basically the thing that makes it seem intelligent, because it gives different responses each time, so it seems like it's thinking. But yeah, having it just always give the most likely response would probably be better, but also probably wouldn't play well with copyright laws when you have the exact same code as an existing compiler.
