The summer is over, schools are back, and the data is in: ChatGPT is mainly a tool for cheating on homework.::ChatGPT traffic dropped when summer began and schools closed. Now students are back, and they’re using the AI tool again more.

    I hope you know what you’re doing. That’s a good way to share company secrets with outsiders, also it’s uncertain whether you’re even legally allowed to use the resulting code.

      I appreciate your concern, but no worries. The company code is structured text as I program B&R PLCs and ChatGPT is pretty useless (so far) for that kind of code. The python code I paste in is more for personal hobbies.

        In a similar industry. Friend used it to write Wireshark dissectors for their interface between the PLC and software system. I haven’t used ChatGTP yet, but for certain boiler plate tasks it might be useful. I used to dump tag lists and generate ladder logic with some regex and python to fix the rung numbering within Notepad++. Dumb stuff nobody wants to do by hand.
