I've been using chatgpt with my side projects. Its ability to generate boilerplate for APIs just from what would normally be a google search prompt means you can often go straight from idea to the part where you're adding the interesting features for your app. Its ability to generate what are essentially highly specialized tutorials that match exactly your use cases is also a really big deal. Overall it's really extended what I'm capable of doing. Not because I couldn't do the things before but because I can skip over the boring part in the beginning and save my emotional energy for the part that actually matters. >do I basically have to describe an algorithm in English or can I go up to a higher level and talk about features and what the software ought to do? It understands any "well known" algorithm, api, paradigm or pattern that was written about before 2022. Even pretty obscure stuff. One thing I tried was copy and pasting some of my code into it and having it generate unit tests.
