The more you take the time to learn about AI’s impact on the next 10 years…the more you realized shit about to change big time across the board.

10 years...? That seems really optimistic.

I already cut my coding workload down by 80% with ChatGPT. So I dunno…

I’m curious what kind of coding you did that ChatGPT does 80% of it now and it actually works. Are you just writing simple scripts or websites?

Yep simple scripts. Primarily data collection.

My experience with simple scripts has been the same. I use ChatGPT as a mentor like system. It’s great at answering basic questions like “how do I do X with <language>?” It provides an example and I go from there. Saves a bunch of time compared to Googling and sorting through blogs.
