    Gpt4 is pretty awesome for simple stuff. I’ve just started learning python (Knowing no other language) and made my first project a pyqt GUI for editing the config of a FOSS project. It’s reasoning ability is not great, but when you clearly lay out what you want to do, how you want to do it, it because a fantastic natural language to code interpreter. All the fiddly bits I dread typing out I just pop into gpt 3.5, and more complicated stuff gpt4.

    I have learned a lot from debugging whenever it gets stuck, and being able to create an actual usable program right from the start is awesome.

    Even better is slowly realizing you are understanding what’s going on, and the dread of actually studying to learn the language becomes a genuine desire to learn more.
