Exactly. The only interesting thing here is that it managed to convince this person that "they built" anything. Also it seems there are tons of blogs about this exact task. I guess it's slightly interesting that there now exists a way to find example code snippets besides Google, but it's funny that the supposed insight here is that the important thing is implementation of novel ideas when that's exactly the opposite of what has been demonstrated
- version_five 3y agoOutside of any attribution issues, I think it's a cool capability to be able to get a concise how-to vs having to search for and read a blog. I've asked chatgpt for recipes, I know I could find them online and that neither I nor gpt are inventing anything, getting a concise reply is just the most convenient format.
- Breza 3y agoI completely agree with you. LLMs are great at combining the content of multiple sources, which saves a lot of time. OP was able to say "OK, you've created the app, but I'd like it to use a more modern design." It's not that a dev can't do that with a few Google searches, but it certainly takes longer. Same thing with recipes, you can say, "Give me a recipe for gazpacho that replaces the tomatoes with something else for my friend who's allergic to nightshades."
