Generative AI has completely changed the way I approach software design. I don’t think I could ever go back.

Some interesting thoughts on how to leverage ChatGPT

    I’ve been using ChatGPT at work quite a bit now. Some of the things I’ve used it for are:

    1. Writing a shell script that scrapes some information about code modules and shows them neatly
    2. Minor automation scripts that setup and make my day to day docker workflow easy
    3. Writing random regex, sql, lua pattern matching functions
    4. It turned out to be surprisingly good at creating code examples for certain undocumented APIs (kong.cache, kong.worker_events, kong.cluster_events) in Kong API Gateway.
    5. Copy pasting a rough python automation script, converting it into Go, and adding it in the application itself.

    I still don’t feel comfortable using it for anything big.
