I’ve had the most luck with using ChatGPT for troubleshooting my existing code. I typically tend to lean more towards creative coding, and can provide it with my source code and a casual explanation of the issue and it can often explain how to manipulate things in a way I want.
I’ve relied on it a lot less for code generation and found it to be much more useful as a tutor for concepts that I can rework myself. I haven’t spent much time with Copilot since most of my projects are aiming for an uncommon goal.
Where I’ve found it to be less than useful in code generation is I’ll get caught in a loop where it’s trying an approach I’m not familiar with, so I feed it back the errors I’m getting and hoping it can solve it on its own, but it rarely is able to.
I don’t code professionally, but I’d probably hesitate to use it for anything used in production just based on what I’ve experienced.
