Comment on How do people find good information on the internet these days?

  Eh, I found it quite useful in giving me relatively well known information. As for code, it’s great at telling me what functions and such do without having to traverse the documentation for a library and such, and also explaining stuff I am confused about. It is faster and more convenient for a lot of stuff, as long as you double check important info (but you have to do that anyway, never use a single source etc etc).

    It isn’t “smart”, it’s a language model.

    I mean, it doesn’t even produce compilable code half the time. Even if you give it feedback about which error it produces, it might not fix it after 3-4 corrections. I’ve ended up in loops where it cycles through incorrect suggestions, apparently forgetting that all are incorrect.
