Comment Chatgpt is amazing for simple coding (Score 1) 39

I know many people here are programmers. For those who are not, chatgpt is amazing for simple coding. If you're a jack of all trades and have a simple task, you can do this in chatgpt: Make a powershell script to use an export from the payroll system to build mail distribution lists based on job function and location, use a CSV to map the site address in the payroll file to a human-readable group name. Send me an email with a summary of the resulting group sizes. If any group would be empty, don't update it, just send me an email detailing the error. And it works, tweak the name of the CSV files and make it into a scheduled task and you're done. You can ask followup questions for more features. For people who don't code often, and every coding project starts with remembering if concatenation is a . & or + character, this is nearly magic.

It was a parable about American imperialism, aka "Blood for Oil". Was about environmentalism, but not climate change. Unfortunately, it reached millions of young boys at a sensitive point in their lives so now they fantasize about sex with 10 foot tall blue chicks. (Gotta admit, some of those blue chicks looked pretty good to me too.)
