Do you often use ChatGPT for coding? Maybe it's my prompting skill that are lacking, but to me it feels like a super weak junior dev

I use it quite a bit for things that are (1) widespread (= it has a lot of data about it) and (2) I'm not super familiar with Faster to kickstart things than going through docs / stackoverflow

I am a windows plebe and it lets me fly through Linux stuff effortlessly The cross language barrier for anything well documented I think is getting smashed quickly

Daily. It’s great at certain things, like regexes or when you don’t know an API but want to do something quickly without digging through docs (as long as it’s a common API). Or shell scripts. Think of it as a junior helper who is an absolute savant at doing common but tricky things very quickly.

I use it for single library specific bugs, but it seems to fail exponentially the more complexity you add and confidently makes stuff up.

Wow I’m happy you said this I thought it was just me. I get frustrated with certain responses then begrudgingly having to go back to google + reading the top links 🙃 Also pretty annoying sometimes when it’s blatantly wrong and I get another bug 🤦🏾‍♂️ has been a plus for small/popular things though

a lot it's strong at certain things, weak at others it has strong "horizontal knowledge": it knows some stuff about a lot of things gotta use it often to know its strength/weakness

Yes, I use it a lot and it is extremely good at many things. But yes it is absolutely necessary that you prompt it well. You have to narrow down your problem a lot and paste in as much information as possible. Then it'll create amazing results, e.g. it is very capable of spelling out all test cases or frontend design.

ChatGPT is REALLY good at certain things that are tedious and time consuming E.g. it can quickly make a function using Swift’s DateFormatter class to transform a string in a particular format into Date object

For translating data structures it’s amazing. Generates all the boilerplate to generalise an encoding/decoding. Very helpful for go

I am a fresh autodidact in coding and programming. When there was no ChatGPT, I was kind of struggling TBH even though I am an avid learner—because there are too niché Qs that might disincentivize the learning process, and it was never easy to find solutions or As to them in either tutorials or forums ⬇️

I’ve been uploading repos to the code interpreter and it has been a *major* help in adding features that have different plugins and dependency requirements

I use it all the time and it’s really not that great unless you give it a ton of information. I use copilot more but I often disable it because constant suggestions make me lose my train of thought.
