What modification causes a compiler error with Arrays.asList() in AsListInference.java?

  1. Adding elements to the produced list

  2. Removing elements from the produced list

  3. Changing an element of the produced list

  4. Inserting elements into the produced list

The correct answer is: Adding elements to the produced list

The method Arrays.asList() produces a list that is fixed-size, meaning that it cannot be modified by adding or removing elements. Attempting to add elements to this list would result in a compiler error because it goes against the intended behavior of the method. The other options may also result in potential errors, but they do not directly cause a compiler error with this specific method.
