  • Do I think it’s generally useful? No, not at all.

    But for very specific purposes it’s worth considering as an option.

    Text-to-image generation has been worth it to get a jumping-off point for a sketch, or to get a rough portrait for a D&D character.

    Regular old ChatGPT has been good on a couple occasions for humor (again D&D related; I asked it for a “help wanted” ad in the style of newspaper personals and the result was hilariously campy)

    In terms of actual problem solving… There have been a couple instances where, when Google or Stack Overflow haven’t helped, I’ve asked it for troubleshooting ideas as a last resort. It did manage to pinpoint the issue once, but usually it just ends up that one of the topics or strategies it floats prove to be useful after further investigation. I would never trust anything factual without verifying, or copy/paste code from it directly though.
