I ignored ChatGPT all last week and weekend. I tried it out today and couldn't stop. What amazing technology. I went through the issues in my Github projects and got ChatGPT to create functions for things. Obviously, I'll have to plug in my own code but to get a pretty damn good starting point for code is excellent DX. Previously, I'd research the hell out of something for a week and end up with a ton of background tabs full of badly written tutorials with outdated examples or blog posts by companies urging me to use their services instead of doing things myself. Now, I can bypass all that.

This. It is a very effective augmented learning experience.

  Absolutely. It's a good starting point at the very least.

    It's also great to get answers for things you'd get downvoted to hell on StackExchange sites!

    If you stick a front-end on this (not the vanilla API/UI), then that component can maintain e.g. list of new names, terms, places, etc. And hyperlink those to options like (show wiki, ask GPT, etc.) That is what I am doing manually now. The product possibilities of this tech are very exciting. Frankly, for the first time in yearrrs am excited about the idea of starting a company; a handful of ideas already. I wonder what terms openAI will be offering for commercial use.

      I've had ChatGPT write commercials for various ventures I've only pondered about and now I'm excited to start working towards them.

As a fullstack dev, there's so many things I'm proficient but not expert at, design/frontend aspects - esp. w/ Tailwindcss is one of the less proficient things I deal with, It's helped me not only double or triple the speed of building frontend templates, but also helped me finally click on some of the things I hadn't known about tailwind, or didn't use very much. I may never need to go to stackoverflow or get disgruntled by google's failings of late, and that's a good feeling.
