Every time I've tried chatgpt I've been shocked at the mistakes. It isn't a good tool to use if you care about correctness, and I care about correctness.

It may be able to regurgitate code for simple tasks, but that's all I've seen it get right.

Makes no difference. Both versions are mostly a bullshit generator.

But to see that you actually need to know in detail the things you're asking about.

After using it for some time I'm by now quite surprised when this thingy gets something actually right. But that are very seldom cases.
