      Just so they can close my question I’ve spent an hour writing as a duplicate of an unrelated question?

      Or

      When your issue is the same as the other person’s but then the way produced it is completely different.

      Or even worse: 1 result, the source code on github where the error message is thrown

        I had one of those recently with MicroPython. Turns out I am the only person to ever run out of memory on an ESP8266.

    And then ChatGPT gives you some nonsense that doesn’t actually work.

      If you ask chatGPT a question which is in any way niche, it will catastrophically fuck up the answer or give you the “As an AI language model” scold

        My experience too. The few times I’ve been stuck and decided to try chatgpt, it’s been completely unhelpful, at best suggesting basic things that I checked within the first 5 minutes of troubleshooting.

        That was the best case. Worst case it’d sprout some plausible looking nonsense that took time to check and dismiss.

      Only for well known stuff. If I can’t find anything useful on the Internet, ChatGPT will start talking bullshit. Sometimes hard to catch but most of the time there’s a reason why I still don’t understand: it was utter BS.

    Or worse the only google result is to a forum conversation for your core framework that has been open for 8 years and has never been fixed

    No results from StackOverflow: you’re either doing something really stupid or something cutting edge. ChatGPT is good for determining which of those it is haha

      As someone constantly doing stuff on the line of stupid and cutting edge constantly, might need to start doing this.

      That or add to the wild west of JavaScript and start writing medium articles about it.
