I don’t think anyone here is confusing ChatGPT for an actual person.

What is really interesting with ChatGPT compared to other interactive software is that you can give instructions the way you would do it with a human. You can literally copy paste a compilation error, with no more context, and it will fix the previous program it generated. Even just pointing vaguely to something like “that does not look correct, you forgot some edge cases” will result in an improved version.
