What/how did you learn from chatGPT that made it better than tutorials? How did you verify what it was telling you was correct as it has a propensity to make stuff up?
- SamPatt 4y agoBecause instead of doing a tutorial I've actually made a couple websites using Node JS, Express, and Heroku. The code it gives seems pretty good but not perfect. It's good enough for me to take it and change it as needed. But the code itself isn't the biggest learning aid. It's troubleshooting problems. When I hit an error - not just within the code but with deployment too - I just pop it into ChatGPT and it will give me suggestions on what might be wrong. This has been phenomenonal. Previously I lacked the confidence to take on building interactive websites because when I ran into issues deploying it, I found it difficult to figure out why. ChatGPT seems to have a lot of troubleshooting information available and it is very good at giving multiple suggestions to fix the problem. Honestly I'm guessing it's superior to having a knowledgeable human helping me, because no human could possibly create a text response in seconds giving three different explanations for why my Heroku logs are giving me a particular error.
- agentdrtran 4y agothat's really interesting, I wonder what's it's reading to troubleshoot. StackOverflow, presumably? It sound like a handy way of collating multiple answers into one quick, coherent format which would be super helpful.
