Asking #ChatGPT to write code that I know how to write feels similar to working with a junior developer. It takes a lot of revisions and feedback to get things just right, and it feels like it'd be faster for me to do it myself.

Unfortunately, unlike a human junior developer, ChatGPT can't learn from me over time, due to the limited context window.

Where ChatGPT shines is writing code that I don't know how to write myself, saving me the learning curve of figuring it out.

@squareflair Yeah it's definitely good at that boilerplate kind of stuff too.

@JesseSkinner I was hoping for OCR and/or photo identification, which would be amazing.

But not yet I guess.

@squareflair yeah it still can't load URLs so it just guesses stuff from the URL itself. Apparently it will be able to handle images soon, but that is still in beta.

@JesseSkinner I want to work there. It seems like the equivalent of Google's early days of search.
