LLMs are statistical word association machines. Or tokens more accurately. So if you tell it to not make mistakes, it'll likely weight the output towards having validation, checks, etc. It might still produce silly output saying no mistakes were made despite having bugs or logic errors. But LLMs are just a tool! So use them for what they're good at and can actually do, not what they themselves claim they can do lol.

Just explain what you are trying to do like you would with a person and it will give you the code. It probably won’t quite be what you want so refine your request or post a photo of the errors you might get and try again.

If you are working with a language that you aren’t familiar with it is very helpful. Just remember that it has been trained on all the code on the internet, so it knows a lot.

It is a great tool, with limitations, of course. As the developer you have to know how to apply it to get the most from it. You can see from the downvotes that there’s a lot of negativity towards llms, but I have positive experiences with using ChatGPT.

I have had the same experience with text and images. Not sure what is up with that. As for code, it is really helpful for generating boilerplate stuff that you probably don’t want to do yourself. Rapid prototyping and proof of concept creation is another. I suggest trying it out to see what it can do to make your life easier, but you will have instances where it just won’t do what you ask. I kind of enjoy the back and forth to get things working and I feel it saves effort.
