Day 39 of Learn C++ from ChatGPT - Smart pointers still own me :(

:(

It's a very interesting project to learn a programming language from chat GPT. I think however it is going to be much easier to get a solid understanding of the basics from a book, which is planned out by a human. AI's answers are not going to be consistent and sometimes will just take you on a tangent, to dusty areas that you certainly don't want to go as a beginner. I already had a good understanding of let's say c++ or VBA or other languages before AI was a thing, and let me tell you when I started interacting with it its answers were just... weird. Assuming they were even on point, which they often weren't.

To understand smart pointers you should learn about ownership and RAII. If you want I can give you a couple examples on explaining when are these pointers used.
