A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

IT DIDN'T TAKE long. Just months after OpenAI’s ChatGPT chatbot upended the startup economy, cybercriminals and hackers are claiming to have created their own versions of the text-generating technology. The systems could, theoretically at least, supercharge criminals’ ability to write malware or phishing emails that trick people into handing over their login information.

Yup.

I find it can be quite a useful tool. But, I also know when to spot its mistakes. I had it generate and cleanup some code the other day, and found 4 or 5 pretty big issues with it, which would have been hardly detectable by a more novice developer.

After, telling it about its own issues, it was able to identify and correct them.

Its, kind of like mentoring a new developer.
