I'm finding ChatGPT may be wrong, but it's answers are often enough to point me in the right direction - particularly when I'm working in a new domain where I'm not yet experienced enough to be able to ask google the right questions.

Previously I'd fall back to asking in a forum and getting a (tbf) much better answer a few hours or days later, but ChatGPT may be enough to point me in the right direction in a few minutes

Well put, it’s really similar for me.

I had this happen then I was stuck on a small side project that was slightly out of my wheelhouse.

It wasn’t meaningful enough to spend a lot of time researching or to pay someone to solve it so I was just going to give up on it.

Asked ChatGPT and it was able to unblock me by pointing me in the right direction.

Now I have a working tool to solve a very specific problem of mine.

If I'm at work and stuck on a problem I can hardly afford to wait around for a few days to be unblocked by a lucky forum answer.
