@keithalexander @GaryMarcus I know *nothing* about coding, but that does seem to be one of the main things they’re actually good at. Lately I’ve enjoyed ChatGPTs help with sorting data in Excel. But always worry it’s making stuff up.

I was initially quite fascinated by playing with the big LLMs, but I just find them not that useful whenever I try, though tbf I haven't tried code-editor integration.
