I asked it how to do something with an AWS cli tool. ChatGPT invented a new parameter that looked like a programmer would come up with it and it would do exactly what I was looking for (I assumed many people had my problem before).
aws cloudfront update-distribution --id <distribution-id> --distribution-config <new-config> --no-reset-origin-access-identity
Took me a while to figure out that the parameter --no-reset-origin-access-identity was not only not working. But it did never exist on any version of the cli tool.

- julius 4y agoChatGPT was my first choice just because I want to know if it is any good at helping me with my work. But for this problem (CF-Distribution lost OAC settings when updating the root file), all the google fu in the world did not help me. It turned out that I had to update my aws-cli and my problem went away. Apparently no one else on the internet had that problem, so only my gut could help me figure it out.
