I’ve tried using ChatGPT for some basic coding syntax/logic, and I’ve had mixed results. Usually not so great.

Wondering if it had access to the whole code base and could better understand the context of the code if it would be better.

What’s your experience been like?

I tried it in the past but didn't really find it that helpful, mostly just for things that are really obvious, like writing a constructor that just copies argument etc. But my main issue is moral because I find the whole concept of using open source code like this quite disgusting. The only time I would consider using something like this again would be with open source alternative.
