My rule of thumb is, if he doesn’t give you the solution right off the bat he won’t give you one. If that happens either fix it yourself or start a new chat and reformulate the question completely.
Comment on AI isn’t ready to replace human coders for debugging, researchers say

This is my experience as well. Best case scenario it gives me a rough idea of what functions to use or how to set up the logic, but then it always screws up the actual implementation. I’ve never asked ChatGPT for coding help and gotten something I can use off the bat. I always have to rewrite it before it’s functional.
