Pasting an error code or cryptic log file message with a bit of context and it’s better than googling for 4 days.
I usually can find what I'm looking for unless it's really obscure with days of searching. If something is that obscure, it seems kind of unlikely ChatGPT is going to give a good answer either.
If you know enough to sus out the obviously wrong shit it produces every once in a while.
That's one pretty big problem. If something really is difficult/complex you likely won't be able to tell the difference between a wrong answer from ChatGPT and one that's correct unless it just says something obviously ridiculous.
Obviously humans make mistakes too, but at least when you search you see results in context, other can potentially call out/add context to things that might not be correct (or even misleading), etc. With ChatGPT you kind of have to trust it or not.
