Extremely good at turning JSON into a Go struct. Just in general, as someone who has spent years writing Python, it’s helped me fill in gaps with Go. This is a killer feature for GPT.. if you’re proficient in one language it can help you rapidly get up to speed in another.

Surprisingly GoLand has this build in. Just copy Json into a .go file and it'll prompt you if it should convert it to a struct.

I’m running a global pilot to see how we can effectively use it for internal data at a multinational investment bank

Surely you need to keep the data inside your own system and can’t send it to OpenAI, right?

OpenAI changed the terms, they dont use it anymore.

I'm curious about this too. What sort of pilot are you running? How (if at all) did you get permission to upload data?

I'd say 80% of usage is focused on engineering tasks, while the rest are product/sales/customer success/marketing/HR.

The biggest issue we've seen is that folks don't really know how to use it. We created a Slack channel to share examples, encourage people to try it, and help each other out, which seems to be increasing usage (and memes).

Full disclosure: I built a ChatGPT for Teams tool with a friend, so most of the usage is sharing links/collaborating with that tool.

Yes. It is a good clue engine. If I can’t solve a problem it will give me something to try. Sometimes misses the mark. Sometimes finds something I hadn’t thought of.

Also great for asking how to in Python questions and explaining ML concepts. Danger is I wont learn Python properly but just remember the prompts!

Not much, really. OpenAI blocks my company's VPN so I can't even get to ChatGPT.

You mean your company blocks it, or has OpenAI black listed particular VPNs?

OpenAI blocks all VPNs. Some get through regardless, those seem to be the exception.

I don't use it, it returns mostly incorrect code that makes me realize it's not worth it. I'm more productive and write better code ignoring ChatGPT 95% of the time.

My experience is that it is also pretty good a debugging its own mistakes too.

What do you use it for 5% of the time then?

not OP, but I can guess: shell scripts. its great for 'i have this shape text/files and i need this other shape'.

unsurprisingly, the thing built for translating languages is really good at translating languages
