Yes! And using it more all the time. I share very little of my progress and discoveries at work because AI isn't welcomed there. Mostly it's crickets when I bring it up, and I've even written extensive intros with demos from our own code. Still, I'm the only believer. I was in software when the internet was invented, too, and many people panned that. I think LLMs will change the software industry forever and for the better. I think it's fantastic!

That's a great link ... thank you. I also note, in the article: "there were more wrong answers in the text database than right ones." Which mirrors the problem I often experience with StackOverflow answers, they are based on old versions, information, etc. As good as ChatGPT etc are, they are susceptible to the GIGO (garbage in, garbage out) vulnerability. I wonder whether the implementations take onboard the users' feedback about errors, etc. Then again, not all users are benevolent and appropriately knowledgeable. A Problem that also plagues Wikipedia, StackOverflow and most crowdsourced knowledge-bases, WIKIs, etc.
