When ChatGPT came out it was like I had the old Google back.
Learning a new programming language used to be mediated with lots of useful trips to Google to understand how some particular bit worked, but Google stopped being useful for that years ago. Even if the content you're looking for exists, it's buried.
And the old ChatGPT was nothing compared to what we have today, nowadays reasoning models will eat through math problems no problem when this was a major limitation in the past.
I don't buy it. Open AI doesn't come close to passing my credibility check. I don't believe their metrics.
OpenAI is not the only company making LLMs, there are plenty now, you can use Gemini 2.5 Pro for example. And of course you can just try a SOTA model like Gemini 2.5 Pro for free, you don't have to trust anything.
You don't have to. Just try it yourself.
