I just had my first assistance from ChatGPT today, courtesy of a "junior" (I would prefer "less-experienced") engineer. He wanted to click a web button as part of his work on improving our steam engine (ok, calibration system) so I worked out the URL for the button and the appropriate curl incantation to trigger it. Gave him the URL and suggest he twiddled some python to do it.
About an hour later he came back, told me he'd asked ChatGPT to write the code for him and yes, it did work.
Anyway, thing is it really made me think about how much of the grunt/support work can potentially be offloaded like this; in this case it really did save us both some time.
On the other hand, when I've played with it before, it got stuff really badly wrong (ever tried ego-surfing with it?).

- zh3 4y agoSearching the internet for information about yourself personally. It was very flattering what it said about me (and in fact was mostly wrong) so I tried it on some co-workers as well and they also found it flattering but inaccurate.
