    chatGPT gives such a mess, many errors. I think we're going to have a rough future as more generated code slips into production. As a CTO with 30 years experience and a year's worth of GPT generated code (most of which is subtly wrong), any employee that copy-pastes will get a STERN warning, then a termination.

    • @solangegordon9877

    • @aoeu256
      @aoeu256 Před 2 měsíci +1

      What ChatGPT code doesn't have subtle errors it most of the time doesn't work, or requires you to optimise it. ChatGPT can also help you optimise the code and find the subtle errors, but you need to be willing to double check what it generates.

    I don't like this new tech. I do not want to interact with a computer as if it were a human. I like computers because I don't have to "socialize" with it like a person and use "natural language" with it.
    I tried to use this chat style ai, but I have a complete mental block, I just do not know how to "talk" to it. It's NOT a person. This is too weird and awkward. I like my old fashioned GUIs and simple command prompts. I dread this new ai future.

    And Chat GPT has been shown to speak accurate English sentences something like 63% of the time -- so this is likely to be even more successful than learning Python from your dog.
    The jury is still out on cats and pigeons.

      How often do you use ChatGPT? I use it all day and have never seen incorrect English. I do often times have to coax it into an accurate programming answer, but that is often due to me not completely describing the goal.

    • @not_ever
      @not_ever Před 5 měsíci

      @@CHURCHISAWESUM I''m sure it solves your beginner problems adequately. It may not do so in a very Pythonic way though and you may not notice that it has generated code that is very inefficient. Also Python is deceptively simple. The deception is that it's full of horrible little bug causing gotchas that are hard to spot especially for beginners.
      If you're learning Python with chatgpt, I think the advice in this video is great, i.e use it to generate a study plan or to explain existing high quality code to you. It is very good at both of these things and this is much safer than having chatgpt generate code that you aren't necessarily able to judge the quality of at the beginner stage of your journey.

      @shadowyzephyr Před 3 měsíci

      @@not_ever Yes, because it is a chatbot, not really meant for that. Programmers don't just write all the code out line by line and then it magically works, you have an editor and IDE, and need to problem solve, bugfix, and use other tools.
      If these AIs had code interpreters, and could run what they write and then fix any errors/improve it, they would be better. Not necessarily good, but better.

    Good lord no, please do not do this. There is no guarantee that the information that the AI is going to feed you is well grounded that it's solutions are correct or that the learning paths etc. are good. The best way? Go. To. School. Second best, take a solid, recommend course and work the problems yourself. Then work your own projects, this is on no way a good approach.

    If you lack background in basic Calculus, linear algebra, discrete math and basic probability theory... you will never understand and be good at Python.

    • @jks234
      @jks234 Před 5 měsíci +40

      Truthfully, there really is no such thing as being “good at Python”.
      There is only “having experience building certain solutions in Python”.
      Python is not the primary tool to deliver solutions.
      The solutions are just written in Python. One of many languages people have used to implement the delivered solution.
      So if you need to build a solution that uses discrete math, then yes, you need to know it. But it is not Python.
      You need to know whatever you need to know to deliver the solution. That’s it.

    • @YuTv1408
      @YuTv1408 Před 5 měsíci +4

      ​​@@jks234 don't put words in my mouth... I never said python== discrete math. All programming came from math, just like all engineering branches came from math+physics. Solutions to semiconductor scientific machines here in Silicon Valley are best solves using Functional Programming. But Python is taking over. I've seen this for 7 years now and been in the industry for 25 yrs.

    • @YuTv1408
      @YuTv1408 Před 5 měsíci

      ​​​@@jks234 fyi .. if you lack a math and physics background you will never full understanding any type of programming. These videos are made for normies who don't know any better. Rather than talking so big... come to Silicon Valley and get involved with real tech. Or try getting a CS degree from Caltech or MIT... and then tell me "you No Math is Required." ?????? I'm waiting

    • @brendan2868
      @brendan2868 Před 5 měsíci +27

      ​@YuTv1408 lol you don't need to be good at any of that to be able to program. To be able to program "mathematical applications" yes. But generally speaking no.
      That being said.. it's definitely worth knowing particularly linear algebra and statistics because those two areas appear often in general programing. In more niche programing like dynamical systems, financial modelling and AI calculus is needed, but that's for very niche applications. Even an ML or AI engineer doesn't really need to know advanced calc, given the algorithms are pre coded in libraries
