AI is extremely good at producing well formatted bullshit. You need to be constantly on guard against stuff that sounds and looks right but ultimately is just noise. You can also waste a ton of time on this. Especially OpenAI's offering shows poorly in this respect: it will keep circling back to its own comfort zone to show off some piece of code or some concept that it knows a lot about whilst avoiding the actual question. It's really good at jumping to the wrong conclusions (and making it sound like some kind of profound insight). But the few times that it is on the money make up for all of that noise. Even so, I could do without the wasted time and endless back and forths correcting the same stuff over and over again, it is extremely tedious.
