This is actually pretty pointless. Since the "AI" doesn't actually know anything.
For example the other day i asked ChatGPT about a problem i had with some generated code that didn't compile. It then told me about a setting in the generator (nswag), that didn't exist.
I told it that this setting does not exist and it said something like: "Sorry, my bad, try the following" and then kept inventing this setting with slightly different names and values over and over again.
There are similar settings that exist, so it just hallucinated a tiny bit of text inside all the snippets that it learned from.
This is also not the first time this happened, most of the times i tried using AI for help with things, it just made up some nonsense and wasted my time with it.

- leptons 1y agoThis is an all too common experience for me as well with "AI". It does exactly what you described as well as all kinds of other AI-brainfarts. It's made me about 2% more productive when it autocompletes the log statement I'm about to write, and even that it gets wrong a lot of the time. Artificial colors and artificial flavors and artificial intelligence all have something in common - they are not as good as the real thing, and probably never will be.
