Ask HN: How do you use ChatGPT in your workflow?

by euph0ria on 6/15/23, 4:58 PM with 1 comments

In a few threads recently a lot of devs state they use GPT to improve their efficiency and become 1.5x engineers etc.

Could you please elaborate and give practical examples on how you do that?

What type of tasks? Alt-tab between Windows and copy paste etc? Prompt engineering? How do you work with it in large projects etc?

    I find that GPT is great at generating test code :)

    Paste in a function or file and ask GPT to create test code for particular edge-cases. It's usually close enough.

    You can also ask it to create sample data for tables and API requests.
