I'm learning faster thanks to GPT-3.5 correcting my code and giving me suggestions.
Why is it so demonized for coding purposes again?
Do jobs become so complicated to the point GPT stops being helpful?
Or are companies afraid I might get too productive if I buy GPT-4 and start job hopping for raises too early?
Why?
I'm a retard who never learned properly and GPT is like a part of my brain, the one who was supposed to learn
With it I am unstoppable, there's literally nothing I can't do
People hate it because it is an equalizer
Screw your 10 years proficiency in a language/framework, I'm just as good day 1
Only pure brainpower matters now
>I'm just as good day 1
nice fantasy
When you have a real job you'll learn that most of the work is fixing bugs. Got luck getting GPT to help you with that without feeding it your entire code base
This. I used it at first but soon realized it didn't made any of my work any easier. The kind of code it helps you write I can write without stopping to think, and all the rest requires me to carefully read it and understand it to integrate it properly. I don't have time to babysit an idiot savant assistant.
With AI you dont have to have a "real job" (kek wagei), you make your own job
Real. This what ai dumbasses seem to miss
>wagie noises
>inserts company proprietary code into someone else's computer
my code now, nothing personel
>wagies at the pentagon and lockheed martin get their hands on chat gpt
>open ai gets hacked by chinks
>chinks get ahold of their code
wrong
Pretty much this. I met a graphic designer the other day who was "coding" their own app with GPT. It's actually hilarious imagining it spitting out million-fold if statements to debug itself...
there's a difference between using it to learn and expecting it to complete your tickets for you
It's a great learning tool, I used it to learn latex today. I had never used it before and now I have a decent understanding of it. It's much faster than having to google everything by yourself.
>coded a somewhat complex Laravel app in like a week
>no idea about Laravel beforehand
I mean, been working with PHP for decades now, but still, thanks ChatGPT!
because it's a weak AI designed to just make up bullshit when it can't effectively answer your prompt, and a lot of the code it shits out is just awful
make a better one (open source)
i actually got an entry level wfh job thanks to chatgpt by cheating on the homework assignment/small project, since it used lots of concepts i still didn't see before as a beginner, but i decided to job hunt because why not anyway
naturally half the work was learning the basics enough to not just copy paste odd, nonsense code and spotting errors
felt a little bad at first, but then i realized i'd be jobless today if it weren't for chatgpt
of course i had to overwork extra hard and basically not sleep anymore for weeks to get the gist of my role as soon as possible, but it was worth it
so yeah if you have the opportunity to take advantage of ai, it would be absolutely stupid to not do so, results are what matters
thanks chatgpt
Jealous, this is what I'm trying to do
No luck on getting called for interviews so far though
Guess I need to lie extra hard on the resume too
Last time I applied for a job, I let GPT write my resume and cover letter, so if you need help lying...
I don't think GPT is very good at writing code, but writing bullshit that managers like to hear is its best use case. I make it write my business cases and other strategic documents too. I'm a terrible writer, but a good editor, GPT generates pages of smart-sounding bullshit, so we make a good team.
The hate comes from people overrating or worshipping it
It is a useful tool to a competent programmer, but you don't have many opportunities to use it when you're employed
It's useful for some things, and not useful for other things. Just ignore the people (there's some itt) who claim it's not useful for anything or that it's useful for everything. Both groups are retards. You have to use your judgement about when it's appropriate to use/when it will save time, and when it won't.
can you give me your prompts for what youre doing that chatgpt checks your code and gives suggestions
"hello sir please check following code sir"
Virtually ALL the code that chatgpt gives me is complete dogshit and often won't even execute. Ruby
gpt only gives something that statistically looks like code, or directly copies code from its training set
it can't actually code, and you won't learn to code with it
I've been trying to cheat some tests using chatgpt and it never scored 100% and probably it's thanks to me I got all the passing mark or I would fail
A few months ago I asked it to write me a script where it monitors a folder and automatically removes exif data from any image I drop inside, and it did just that. It's not complex, but it can 100% write code. I also asked it to modify the code so it creates a backup of the original exif image, and again it just worked.
it generates text that looks like a script that can do that, if it looks enough like such a script it might work, but it is purely a coincidence
>love is just brain chemicals and GPT is just autocorrect Morty. I am so based and enlightened! edit: thanks for the gold kind stranger!
You can't abstract away the fact that the AI has no idea what it's talking about and is just shitting out things that look correct. Ask for a source and watch it make up dead links and complete bullshit.
it literally doesn't matter retard. PageRank doesn't know what page you're looking for, it just spits out results based on stats. Yet no one's gonna shame you for learning programming concepts with Google/Duckduckgo/Kagi. It doesn't have to be AGI to be useful and get you the results you want
You're not learning fuckin' shit, bugman.
The AI is doing it all for you. Kek.
It's awesome for personal projects. I use gpt-4 32k for making games, it's insane how useful it is, it really is an equaliser/accelerator.
If you're coding is below ChatGPT, you're not going to make it. Simple as that.
