@alyssa I have to admit I find it quite useful for generating initial PoC code.

Though usually I still have to do edits before the code even runs.

That being said, one should never use LLMs as a knowledge source. Today I had it tell me that `let` in Rust is used declare mutable variables xD

@bluewinds @alyssa I'm well aware, hence I try to only use the generated code when I fully understand it.

The heads-up is still very much appreciated nevertheless <3

That's my real point: it's not actually good for anything. It's all hype. If you're understanding it fully before using it, you'd have been better off just doing the work yourself to begin with!

Anything that chatgpt *seems* to be good at, it's more likely to be harmful than helpful.
