Unfortunately, LLMs are still prone to make facts up, and very persuasively. In fact, most of non-trivial topics I tried have required double-/triple- checking, so it's sometimes not really productive to use chatGPT.

You are correct that I made an error in my previous response.

I apologize for the confusion I may have caused in my previous response

I appreciate you bringing this to my attention.

I apologize, thank you for your attention to detail!

I've only been using it for a few days and already find this post amusing. Almost hit a "come on, man, just get it" moment.

Incredible technology, though. Feels like whoever decides not to use it will be at huge disadvantage real soon

I asked it to explain how to use a certain Vue feature the other day which wasn't working as I hoped. It explained incorrectly, and when I drilled down, it started using React syntax disguised with Vue keywords. I definitely could have tried harder to get it to figure out what was going on, but it kept repeating its mistakes even when I pointed them out explicitly.

Which is exactly why this use-case would be better. "Give me suggestions/ideas, and then I'll take them under consideration"
