Q: What are the ways ChatGPT and other AI language models can assist software engineers?

1.Code Completion and Generation: AI models can help software engineers write code faster by generating code snippets and suggesting completions. 2.Bug Detection: They can be trained to detect bugs and vulnerabilities in code, saving time and improving the overall quality of the software. 3.Documentation Generation: AI models and natural language processing (NLP) can generate documentation, freeing up software engineers to focus on other tasks. 4. Integration with IDEs and Tools: If AI technology models are integrachatgptted into development environments and tools, it will make it easier for software engineers to access their capabilities.

Question 1

What are the effects of ChatGPT on software development and programmers?

Accepted Answer

As with all AI technology, while there is an equal amount of praise for it, there are also limitations to the technology. It does not have the capability as of now to make programmers or software engineers redundant.

This is because it only has the ability to write simple programs. If it has to make any complex coding or high-level business application or a sophisticated gaming app - that is beyond its current capability. However, AI tools like ChatGPT will definitely become proficient coders in the next decade.

ChatGPT cannot create software that gives a competitive edge over competitors nor can it compete with human creativity.

Question 3

What are the advantages of ChatGPT and other AI tools?

Accepted Answer

While ChatGPT developed by OpenAI, will not be responsible for unemployment, what we are already seeing is a shift in focus to AI technology. ChatGPT is a chatbot and a very good one at that, it provides human-like responses to user queries. Within the next 6 months, we will see an improvement in chatbot capabilities and more customer service voice assistants will make their foray into the market. In fact, the ChatGPT AI technology is not new, Ada, the company that provides customer support tools to Meta and Verizon is also using GPT-3, the language model that drives ChatGPT.

Search as we have known it with Google is also going to evolve. In fact, Google has also announced Bard A.I. in response to the threat it sees from ChatGPT. Microsoft invested over $10 billion into the startup behind the hugely popular ChatGPT. We will see a war of the giants and it is expected to benefit all of us.

Question 4

What are the drawbacks of creating content by using ChatGPT?

Accepted Answer

Uses the same repetitive phrases over and over again

It can only answer a question directly, unlike a blog that gives related information.

While it can make recommendations to specific services, you usually won’t find links to specific websites.

It cannot support the information it provides with images and humans are visual creatures.

It cannot provide citation or references for the information it provides.

ChatGPT answers can often have a “hallucination” effect - This is often observed in AI language models, the text seems plausible but wen looked at deeper actually makes no logical sense.
