Even outside of work. Two personal examples, out of dozens this week:
1. Asked ChatGPT for a table showing monthly daily max temp, rainfall in mm and numbers of rain days, for Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand. And colour coded based on the temperatures. Then suggest two times of year, and a route direction, to hit the best conditions on a multi-week trip.
It took a couple of seconds, and it helpfully split Vietnam at Hanoi and HCM given their weather differences.
2. I'm trying to work out how I will build a chicken orchard - post material, spacing, mesh, etc. I asked ChatGPT for a comparison table of steel posts versus timber, and then to cost it out with varying scales of post spacing. Plus pros and cons of each, and likely effort to build. Again, it took a few seconds, including browsing local stores for indicative pricing.
On top of that, I've been even more impressed by a first week testing Cursor.
- RobotCaleb 2y agoYes, of course they did that. These things happily do whatever you ask them to. But did it spit out correct information?
- prawn 2y agoYeah, it did. And uncovered a local timber supply place I wasn't aware of, with decent pricing. I'm not expecting a final quote, but quick ways to compare and consider variations. I've used it in the same way to compare cladding costs/work for lining a building.
