    I never copy code from chatgpt. It’s not my code and it probably doesn’t work. However it is great at making suggestions on how to tackle a problem or how to improve your code. Use ChatGPT like Stack Overflow, with instant replies.

        Blaming the AI for misinformation is like blaming Google for giving you bad search results.

        Learn how to parse the data and fact check it. Usually you can get a hyperlink to the source to see if it’s even reasonably trustworthy.

          I think that analogy is a little off. You can blame Google for showing you bad search results, because the monetary value of a result is much more interesting for Google than showing the actual best result for the query. But I still get your point though.

    I just use it for snippets - “here’s my function, how would I go about changing x?” Or, “here’s my block of code, I’m getting this error, what am I missing?” (I know, I’m fine to share my code but not company code)

      You can host a model locally with gpt4all. So using company code shouldn’t be a problem, since it wouldn’t leave your machine.
