One thing I realized when I used the smarter duckies is that their strength is also their weakness. They are too fast and too good. So they accept your question too easily.

I had an experience recently where i was trying to get an answer in StackOverflow while typing the question midway, it's precisely it's not as efficient that it made me realize my question had a wrong approach altogether. https://twitter.com/KimStacks/status/1605032489436717057
i wonder if ChatGPT and the like would ever be that smart to do that
Yes, I think that will improve over time. As I said in the piece, they aren't quite there yet to replace human programmers, and knowing that your question has the wrong angle is part of it :)
Cool roundup
I particularly like the line

I won't bet against it tho

IтАЩm not too worried (or I spoke too soon ЁЯШБ) abt the AI replacing programmers
But IтАЩm a bit less sure abt some of the overly one sided ( not you, Sairam) coverage I see elsewhere about chatGPT replacing the tools we have now
ChatGPT is great and my point is its strength now might also be its weakness
Then again I also look forward to GPT4 and itтАЩs chat version ЁЯШЖ
Happy new year, Sairam
I think there are a few who are nuanced in their take on ChatGPT. It's great but not perfect like you say :)
Happy new year, KimSia!
