I’m not a developer, I do not work in a technology field, but I used to. I know Linux sysadmin, security, and a very small amount of python.
ChatGPT has allowed me to “write” code that I use everyday in my business. So, I’m not a developer, but it lets me do things I otherwise would not be able to.
My business is still too small to even consider hiring a developer, so it’s allowing me to grow my business.
I’m just writing this to point out that “devs” are not the only people using chatgpt to write code.
Chatgpt and other LLMs are fantastic technical task assistants but, and this is a big but, you need to treat their work the same way you’d treat work from a new intern. Verify the output before you trust it.
He should’ve asked ChatGPT instead. That’s how “modern developers” seem to get by

It’s just making some front end stuff for other people to use to access PDFs on my server that need some level of protection and access control.
So, it’s been pretty easy to verify.
I’m too paranoid about trusting it or even myself to write code that could have irreversible effects.
Thanks for the advice🙏
Could just go full Luddite and pull his tooth by tying string to it like developers who refuse to use AI.
So google how to do a root canal is cool with you?
Go sit in his chair. Moron
It’s not a panacea like they’re saying it is. This is going to kill the software developer space.
No.
Not even close.
