I am using ChatGPT to convert some very brittle tidyverse (R) code into base R, and it’s outstanding. I could finally learn (and then try to remember) all of R’s conventions but it’s a lot more pleasurable to have the chatbot actually do the converting from ideas into code. The context is that I am someone who codes in intense bursts every few months, so a lot of the details never really transition from short-term to long-term memory. ChatGPT is perfect for this.
