chatGPT is a time saver , to ideas and check for mistakes in your own code, you have more time to be creative

[@JamesQQuick]

Agreed! It helps me so much when it comes to creativity

[@cdey3886]

hopefully chatGPT stays just as friends with devs and not become one (these use cases are really good!)

[@JamesQQuick]

Glad you enjoyed it!

i use chatGPT mainly for Regular Expressions 😅, for my other problems i don't get any proper solutions, i prefer to do my own researches and write the code by myself

[@mentoriii3475]

Same, funny that i try something on chatgpt and i find it that im wasting more time explaining it to chatgpt than find the documentation and read it

[@MMH94MMH]

@@mentoriii3475 exactly, its easier and takes less time doing own researches, and for non native english speakers explaining to chatGPT is difficult

[@mentoriii3475]

@@MMH94MMH but sometimes chatgpt is a life savior, if you need to do something with native javascript, or regex then chatgpt really helps

James, I loaded the openAI API into my node server. I used gpt-3 5-turbo. From there I'm able to create a system message that provides alignment for the bot. Now, the bot returns JSON specific. Which just happens to be the ability to tell the server to locate npm packages, and write code to add new abilities to it self. Dun dun duuuuuah!!!! 😅 It also accesses the terminal to restart its own node service. 😮 So, will it work? Will it write itself good code to add new abilities to itself? I'm not sure yet. I'm going to test it today.😂 This gives a whole new meaning to Recursion.

I remember this from the stream. I thought,"Can regex do that?" I think this is when James is at his best, figuring things out and sharing it with us. Well done, sir!

[@JamesQQuick]

Thank you :)

Nice overview James. More or less summarize my experience with chatGPT so far. However, I have had a few times where it just failed completely in providing any value at all and kept providing misleading code/information at best. I wish I could better understand what makes it fail so badly? 🤔 It has almost always been when documentation lacked and I wanted the chat to clarify how to do things. This works well most of the time, but other times it just completely fails. 😅

[@JamesQQuick]

Yeah I’ve had pretty good success but not perfect. I think getting better at asking it questions will be a skill

[@LarsEjaas]

@@JamesQQuick No doubt about it! It's probably a bit like making prompts for Midjurney. It takes time to develop the skill!

[@DanielGwerzman]

Along with documentation, unit tests are another important aspect that developers often neglect. Fortunately, ChatGPT is amazing at creating them.

[@colbyfayock]

ChatGPT - the mentor we all need

[@FunWithDaughter]

Great 👍🏻

[@kaloianangelkov4919]

About Cron syntax part, hope you didn't put that code as it is.. I think it's much better, easier and readable if you use a library like Dayjs.

[@JamesQQuick]

Haven’t heard of that one. I’m pretty happy about node cron. What do you like about Dayjs?

[@yosefali7584]

Nice

[@user-kk4wh4dv8o]

🎉🎉

[@williamsusa5067]

Ok, all I need now is to learn Javascript

[@JamesQQuick]

Easy! Just ask ChatGPT! Haha

[@codewithguillaume]

❤ I use GPT everyday.

[@JamesQQuick]

Same! It's really changing the way I write code!

[@deatho0ne587]

So you are saying there should be a channel on YT that is called "Chat G Pt" that covers your space of YT? Since you said it is your teacher.

[@JamesQQuick]

Haha that’s it!

[@kevinus2710]

There will be more one man company with AI especially ChatGPT
