- mu53 2y agoIf you ask about more niche language features or libraries, chatgpt will make up libraries or functions to fill the gap. When asking an LLM to write a script for you, I would say 10 to 30 % of the time that it completely fails. Again, making up an API or just getting things straight up wrong. Its very helpful, especially when starting from 0 with the beginner questions, but it fails in many scenarios.
