Mate, I’ve used ChatGPT before, it straight up hallucinates functions if you want anything more complex than a basic template or a simple program. And as things are in programming, if even one tiny detail is wrong, things straight up don’t work. Also have fun putting ChatGPT answers into a real program you might have to compile, are you going to copy code into hundreds of files?
My example was public APIs, you might have an endpoint /v2/device that was generated the first time around. Now external customers/businesses built their software to access this endpoint. Next run around the AI generates /v2/appliance instead, everything breaks (while the software itself and unit tests still seem to work for the AI, it just changed a name).
If you don’t want that change you now have to tell the AI what to name things (or what to keep consistent), who is going to do that? The CEO? The intern? Who writes the perfect specification?
