    It’s pretty great at writing short utility scripts and code. And it’s fantastic at explaining errors, warnings, and log file dumps.

    That’s what I use it for.

      Strongly disagree with explaining things, because you don’t know if it’s correct. And you have to validate code it creates, so 🤷‍♂️

      I’ve asked it to produce C for a specific product, and it effectively summarized and reproduced existing example code. Being able to so easily discover a source it used for training revealed the entire trick at once.
