A strong contender
Had a wee shot of Chat GPT last night for the first time. Built a basic website layout in under a minute and used it this morning to help me with a formula for a Crystal Report at work.
Weāre doomed
I installed docker on my desktop and am currently trying to install a chatGPT clone, ācolossalAIā on my desktop. When I run into problems, you guessed it, I am asking chatGPT to help me
Some Doomed sooner than others maybe?
Mate of mine has had a book/story he wanted to write stuck in his head. Asked ChatGpt to write the first chapter and he said it came back with something better than heād have been able to write.
This was a very interesting implementation of it I thought and a good insight into what else could be possible soon. If youāre not into video editing then the vid itself wonāt be too interesting but he basically got chatgpt to write scripts that create extra features for after effects, then implemented the chat window into AFX itself. So basically you can add unlimited custom upgrades to an application, just by asking for what you want in plain English. And when it doesnāt work properly, you just tell it what the problem is and it will fix it. Pretty insane.
This film nailed it
Today my employer talked about using it in work as AI assistance for the dev teams. Things are definitely changing.
Iāve tried doing the similar, following a different tutorial to create some scripts inside AE (I have no coding experience), and despite repeated revisions, I couldnāt get it to produce the same results as the tutorial I was following
If youāre a dev or have anything to do with development chatGPT should be in your toolbox. Avoiding using it fooling yourself into thinking you can solve problems quicker is stupid. Everyone will be using this.
Can it solve managing people? That would really be useful.
Would it be possible to get the bot to manage an inbox? Thatād be pretty rad, just letting the bot read and reply to the tedious emails while you actually do the proper work.
A quick skim shows something called mailbutler has connected the two but Iām sure free versions will be around sooner or later. Itās owned by microsoft after all and I guess google will put Bard into gmail
These ai things are incredible atm but when they are natively inside programmes they are going to absolutely fuck things up.
Yeah dev team at work are all over it already. I do wonder a bit if thereās scope for some future pickle, trying to debug code that nobody has written and is failing for reasons outside the scope of what the AI can see and fix itself.
There should be no reason for this as you can get the AI to comment on what each line does within the actual code.
Iāve had some mixed results with coding, but itās all about how you engineer your prompts.
Google Sheets script: great, worked fine
MQL5: Got mixed up with MQL4 and kept failing to finish code
Pinescript: Not bad but was using older version, hopefully this will be fixed in v4
It shat the bed with automation (ansible and salt). Had to do the work myself like a peasant
Itās good at terraform.
Been using copilot for a bit and itās good.
Trouble with gen-ai is it doesnāt have context, so for anything bigger than an isolated module or function it struggles and needs some amount of rework. It wonāt be long before itās capable of understanding entire projects, itās just works within a narrow scope.
