Yeah it's pretty awesome! I used GPT-4 last week to fix my corrupted SSD. Granted I already narrowed down the kernel logs to a few suspicious lines, but I just pasted those 10 lines in and asked for a fix. Pasting in GPT's arcane `fsck` incantations and boom -- fixed SSD. Saved me an hour or two of hassle reading man pages and stack overflow posts.

Holy crap, I've seen GPT models hallucinate api calls often enough, I would be shitting my pants when touching anything related to a drive.
Yeah while I use ChatGPT to help with pointers, I would never copy-paste a command directly from ChatGPT into my terminal without doing a bit more research into what exactly those commands were doing.
