It’s great as a mental prosthetic. When I am tackling a new complex topic like say a new cloud platform I’m learning, i can test my understanding of the implications of a change to the console settings. I tell it what i think and ask it to check my understanding. Really speeds up my learning, but I don’t rely on it exclusively. I will write my own dang emails, thank you.
Yeah, I mainly like it as a rubber ducking tool. And specifically in contexts where I already understand the topic well and just want prompts to stimulate more ideas on the subject.
That’s exactly right, you have to know enough about the subject to smell a bullshit answer.
