I’ve used it to create a little dashboard page for my home sever - it made a page that displays the uptime, network status, the remaining disc space, links to all my hosted services (including indicators showing if they are online or offline) automatically grabbing the favicon for the links etc
Everything nicely styled and formatted in a dark theme with status colours etc
It did absolutely everything, picked the language added step by step instructions of setting it up even suggestions on styling options.
Do you have any screenshots of what the dashboard looks like?
Do you have more details or the code shared? I’d be very curious to see the output
I made this dumb thing with it
It can handle the entire bee movie script in one go.
I just said the translated text to my dog and she didn’t understand me. The ai have made a mistake somewhere.
May I ask what kind of dog she is? There may certainly be some holes in the localization.
the three-legged-reddish-color type
We’re you standing on one leg when you tried speaking the translation to her?
I was lying down on my back. Let me check again.
EDIT: Holy shit it actually works!
Crazy that you are all using it for entire projects! I’m using it when I get stuck programming with some traceback I can’t resolve or similar, mostly for Python/Django. Even then it often forgets to close a loop or similar.
used it to create an animated birthday card. end result was quite good and lots quicker than coding it all manually. it’s better at basic css and javascript for layout and effects than I would be.
I use ChstGPT as a slightly-higher-tech version of my desktop rubber duck. Whenever I’m stuck at work, I explain ChatGPT what I’m trying to accomplish and how, and in the process of correcting ChatGPT to actually get working code, most of the time I find a better solution during my explanations.
When I first used GPT I did a lot of extra projects outside work. I had it walk me through making a shitty multi-client drawing app, start a terraria clone in godot, a forum tool for my wife, and a bunch of random personal tools.
And then it got me started on my biggest personal project which is using the GPT api. It is a next.js app that is pretty much a multiplayer AI Dungeon at the moment but I have bigger ambitions. Probably too big.
I am a frontend (react + typescript) developer and I have always wanted to do more outside of work but never got around to it. GPT just makes it so quick and easy to have a jumping off point for a project. It has introduced me to a lot of things I don’t see in my day to day.
Initially, I felt the “oh shit, this is gonna take my job” fear, but without actual dev experience and the ability to debug, all those projects would have come to a screeching halt very early on. It is a great sidekick to help me brainstorm or get through my thoughts, though.
I used it to build a character.ai competitor that I got bored with and didn’t finish passed the proof of concept. React programming, typescript, AWS CDK, typescript APIs, helped me come up with the high level architecture with the CloudFront configuration etc etc etc. Took me about a month working on it after work to get the working prototype built including Cognito+Google login working and CICD pipeline running.
I tried with GPT 3.5 to make a site with gamification currency and a job board users could apply to or post tasks.
It introduced me to the world of Wordpress (and helped me figure out some free hosting options). Unfortunately the plug-ins it told me to use conflicted with each other and somehow bricked everything to the point where I couldn’t figure out a way to troubleshoot. I gave up on the experiment.
If I try again, I’ll use 4.0 and have it code the site from scratch (JavaScript & HTML5) without using so much middleware.

Never used it for a website or web app, but I’ve used it for getting scripts for managing my servers started. It always requires a lot of refactoring to make it actually usable. Since I know when the code is wrong, I can coax it through fixing the code itself, but it’s faster to just change it myself. I don’t think a non-coder would get a whole lot of useful code out of it.
I’m converting a bunch of fixed-width reports to html at work. Used it to generate a basic left-right-center header for them. Just some basic boiler plate stuff, but way easier than googling. I’m not ready to try and have it create something I can’t easily review/validate. I’m sure there’s a non-zero number of examples it was trained on saying “This is just a simple example, don’t actually do this in production”.
