Exactly. I suspect many of the people that complain about its inadequacies don’t really work in an industry that can leverage the potential of this tool.
You’re spot on about the documentation aspect. I can install a package and rely on the LLM to know the methods and such and if it doesn’t, then I can spend some time to read it.
Also, I suck at regex but writing a comment about what the regex will do will make the LLM do it for me. Then I’ll test it.
Honestly i started at a new job 2 weeks ago and i've been breezing through subjects (notably thanks to ChatGPT) at an alarming rate. I'm happy, the boss is happy, OpenAI get their 20 bucks a month. It's fascinating to read all the posts from people who claim it cannot generate any good code - sounds like a skill issue to me.
