  1. Just wanted to leave some constructive feedback [hopefully!] on this video (I use GPT4 quite a bit to generate Python and C# code). The title of the video is "Build Anything With ChatGPT, Here’s How", but then you use your own skills and knowledge of Python to start writing code by hand, and teaching the viewer about the code (like writing a function def, and the += operator). This seems to defeat the purpose of using GPT to build the app. You can just tell GPT:

    "Write a complete Python script that prompts the user to input a string of English text, and then it translates that text into Morse Code and prints out the Morse Code representation of the input string."

    And it generates a fully-functioning script that worked for me on first try. I then asked it:

    "Add functionality so the script then prompts for Morse Code from the user, and it translates that back into English."

    And it gave me a new version of the script, but that new version failed and gave an error. I told GPT and pasted it the full error, and GPT gave me a new version of the script with the error fixed. The whole script then worked properly, and it only took me about 5 minutes total to get it up and running. For a viewer with no programming/Python knowledge at all, this method seems more intuitive and efficient than using GPT for some of the code, and typing other code by hand.

  2. This is fine for simple projects for people learning… it's not going to write enterprise applications for you. It can certainly help fill in some knowledge gaps and as a firmware engineer of 18 years I use all the time since my team wanted to do something in Qt and I've never used Qt before, it's been great for that… but it is not true that someone with no knowledge of programming could complete this project just with ChatGPT… or, I suppose more accurately there is no way they could create it in less than 10x to 100x longer than it's going to take me with all of my experience coming into it because they will be learning programming from ChatGPT as they go. (in the strictest sense anyone can do any programming project WITHOUT ChatGPT… they can learn from books or the traditional internet as they go as well, it will just take a very long time).

  3. 1:21 just up to this point you already have so much fault assumption to other people. Just to choose which one to start they have no idea Game Dev is way much harder and todo list is the easiest one

  4. Ok, all this is basic programming… Can it produces a very complicated program for me without coding just by asking my requirements. Like a program that would need tens of thousands of lines of coding?

  5. For simple things, sure. But in my experiments with both ChatGPT and Copilot, once your requirements get in any way complex, it really falls flat. It usually produces code, but its buggy or flat out wrong. If you're already a programmer, this might not be a problem, if you can spot the problems, point them out and get it to iterate on it until its correct, but if you don't know how to read the code and spot the problems (and reading code is harder than writing it!), then you're in trouble. You can ask it to review its own code and find problems, and this works to a point, but I've still had it working through the code step by step and confidently declaring that the code is correct when it was not. I feel it produces "new graduate" level code quality at best, but if you're requirements go beyond what a new graduate can produce, then you need to hold its hands. That's not to say its not useful or can save you time, just that its not a replacement for programming and problem solving skills and its far from perfect. It is great for simple things, for boilerplate, for explaining things, for learning and it can do complex code IF you iteratively work with it through the problems small chunks of code at a time, but if you do this you need a solid understanding so you can find and point out its mistakes and oversights.

  6. I created a program with gpt that sorts everything in a folder it is in. So it takes everything out of an existing folders, deletes empty folders, then sorts everything, and creates folders inside those to sort even further. For example, pictures folder contains years, and then year folder contains month. Ive sorted over one TB of hard drive in just a couple of minutes. I have never been coding, so this is just a magic show

  7. GPTs store popular recommendations:
    1. With the GPT ‘Translator’, all translators are going to be out of a job.
    2.The magical GPT "Story King" allows children to interact with stories. When children listen to stories, they are both listeners and story creators, stimulating children's imagination and creativity.Parents with children must check it out.
    3.GPT "TOP NEWS ”, According to your needs, it is so convenient to grasp the real-time headlines and hot events around the world!
    4.GPT“1 To 1 Foreign Teacher”your best foreign language teacher!

  8. This is probably one of the absolute best videos I have watched so far on this subject. Thanks a million! Also, I'm curious as to why you don't have the "Super thanks" enabled?

  9. for all this hassle, just learn python lol, what he didn't say is chatgpt stuff give you out of date codes, and not always works, then you will spend rest of your day chatting to it to try to fix, you are far better to invest your time into the actual coding lol

  10. Nice video man, thanks for the initiative.I think it would be very interesting trying to build something big with the help of chat gpt. It would be interesting to see how you would handle bad or maybe not so concise answers from caht GPT 😀

  11. VSC is not letting me use git bash terminal to upload my projects to github's website
    its been free all my life i've used it and now when i get to the websites and (12+ youtube tutorials)
    when i go to push it, it says "go to this browser to authenticate" where upon it demandsmoney.
    and not a LITTLE money, a LOT of money and idk why. it's NEVER asked for money and now i can
    NOT UPLOAD ANY PROJECTS TO GITHUB SITE and IDK WHY!?
    OpenAI does not have an answer for this either.

  12. i just came across to your channel, its superb. and i totally agree with you, im doing a project right now building chatbot with chatgpt, can you help me out or make another content regard to it. thank you

  13. As a veteran IT guy all I can say is be very careful what you wish for in automated coding because you will have to maintain the spaghetti mess. I predict that the maintenance costs will far outweigh the benefits of generated and poorly commented code.
