chatgpt can be nice if you don't have strong coding abilities, but it can also be a PITA when it does something wrong and you have to debug the code by yourself. it's refreshing when you can correct it and tell to remember what it did wrong, tho :)

Sure, it is just Google 2.0, as long as it is treated that way, it's not a problem. A lot of people use it as a fact machine or even a human. Which becomes a dangerous problem when developers learn a language through it or even worse use it instead of learning a language.
Like you mentioned, there are a lot of garbage on places like stack and that is part of what it uses to generate stuff (I even believe all the stacks was one of the first data sources). · 2 months ago
only that for stackoverflow you have to search for and browse a whole lot of different posts before findind the right solution, unless it's really trivial that maybe even stackoverflow isn't needed. I know these LLM just grab content over the Internet, it's not their own merit, but chatgpt does it pretty good - and it's fine for me. · 2 months ago
Like devyl said, it isn't capable of writing code, it just regurgitates whatever someone else wrote, bugs and all. It's like a slightly worse version of stack overflow. · 2 months ago
I find it more than capable, if you're not pretending it to write a full application for you. · 2 months ago
The problem is, that LLM generate worse code over time and if you don't see if the code has bugs. nevertheless, LLMs can't code. they just copy text together... · 2 months ago
