The AP CSA pass surprises me (I've never taken it myself). I had this thought because I tried to use chatgpt for work programming stuff and it got stuff wrong very frequently. So frequently, and to a great enough degree, that I had to keep re-circumscribing what kind of problems were worth my time to throw at it, and now it's a tiny cross-section.
- shaunsingh0207 4y agoThats what surprises me as well. If I give chatGPT anything that requires actual thought or reasoning put into it, it just produces gibberish. It's great for getting a blueprint to start from. I recently had to write a gtk+rust client, and I asked chatGPT to give me some starter code which largely worked. All the chatGPT hype feels the same to me as the copilot hype from a while back. The people who got the most excited about it are the same people who its going to replace.
- fdr 4y agoThat does seem like a good application for it. If one thinks something is in the corpus many times (various GTK idioms), chatgpt is pretty good at a type of syntactic composition...e.g., "can you show it to me in rust"
