I'm a hobby programmer. I mostly ask ChatGPT for stuff that I could do, but want save some time, or I have absolutely no clue how to, for example, get the type annotations right in Rust (still a super noob!).
In both cases, even after back and forth with the AI for half an hour, the result is absolute garbage. And never works. I don't understand at all how people get even barely usable stuff out of AI...
- FeepingCreature 2y agoBack and forth degrades quality. Try resetting more frequently. And make sure you're using a frontier model, ie. GPT-4, Opus, Gemini etc.
- SunlitCat 2y agoWell, ChatGPT surprised me when I asked it to write me a gltf parser. At first it printed out some python code, but after asking it to do the same it same in c++, it printed out a perfectly working parser, listing buffer size and buffer view sizes of a glb file using the nlohmann json library.
