I kept asking it about my own public work for a bit. Some of it is half right. When it's wrong though you get no indication that it's just fabulating. I asked it about Tango, and it just made up some stuff about what a system named "Tango" written by someone like me might be.
Based on this experience I would never trust this tool for anything but finding references.
It does feel though like we have discovered the uncanny valley for text.
Honestly, I find it completely impossible to do anything in less than 6-8 hours. Setting up for any task takes at least four hours, every time, no matter the nature of the task.
I could have written the same thing about my experience trying to play computer games for an hour (lol) when the baby was sleeping. If you have less than 8 hours a week to do it, forget about PC gaming.
Had a cool idea, and a few hours to try it.
* IDE needs update
* updater needs update 🙄
* dependency not available for Mac OS
* compiler version is wrong
* two possible alternative compilers, both broken in their own way
* getting help requires login
* Okta single sign on forgot who I am
* Google Authenticator phone is upstairs
* 500 internal server error
It's been two hours and I no longer want to try my idea.
