Just using ChatGPT to help me once in a while, specially with regex stuff :slight_smile:

I found MS copilot sometimes not giving accurate information.
It tried to get code from forums and try to code by itself, but sometimes the code is not working or having syntax errors.

I use Microsoft Copilot, various HuggingChat models, Claude… Claude seems to be pretty good these days. I don’t really use them for actual code snippets, just helping me to understand higher-level concepts.

HuggingChat looks nice.
For general AI Q/A usage, I also liked Perplexity and Phind

Yeah, HuggingChat is great. I’ve mostly been using the Lllama 3 model and am quite impressed with the results!

It’s not even about trust. There are not really AI’s s they have a problem with fixing one-line bug where solution is in official documentation. I can’t think about it to do something bigger for me. I sometimes use it for a hint or idea and research specific keywords/naming by myself and that’s all we can really do with so-called AI’s. As always the end of the humanity/world has been delayed … :sweat_smile:

I have just tried it and results were not surprising. There are 2 different levels with and without searching internet … I would say that the one without searching is on Chat GPT-3 level and the second one is on Chat GPT-4 level. However both answers were completely wrong. When read carefully and browsing search results they give a hint, but it’s at least as same amount of work as without AI, so they don’t help me at all.

Edit: I have changed one thing in my example 1 LOC code and the results with and without internet were terrible. They have caused more problems than help. This AI sometimes cannot tell a difference between language types.

I wonder if my 1 LOC test is better than Turing’s one as so far no AI have passed it at all. :joy:

I try to avoid them when I can,.I try to solve problems when I can, but when I am having a hard time, I use ChatGPT.

IMHO, I think coding AI is very useful for experienced developers, but not for junior devs, especially those in stressful environments.
