    i start everything i do w chatgpt and it’s twice given me a dummy function/method that immediately worked and this was my reaction both times. lol

    it shipped both times and not even the senior guys caught it in any of the peer reviews before it reached the clients; it’s been almost a year for the first one and they’re still happy w it. 🤷

        I mean, chatgpt can easily create basic code without issues.

        But as soon as you desire something more it might fall apart and then there is where dumb luck comes in.

        very much so and it’s painted my impression of the people who have SO MUCH more experience and talent than i do; since they’re expected to catch & correct it.

        it’s also helped me immensely when i pointed out to them that they missed its implicit insecurity after our peer reviews and i’m know that it pissed some of them off.

          Reviewers are not infallible and are largely focused on the meat of the MR rather than every single detail.

          It reflects much more poorly on you than it does on them.
