This is almost true. I’m a C++ developer, and since the language, its syntax and standard libraries are so well documented, ChatGPT can answer almost anything about them with great accuracy and well written code.
But any developer knows the real meat of most programs is in external libraries, and ChatGPT’s quality falls off very quickly and sharply once you get into those. I tried asking it to explain how to write a specific audio filter for a program I was working on, and what’s really scary is that the code looks right at a first glance, but once you run it, it doesn’t behave how you would expect it to.
So by analogy, the same thing can happen with any subject. ChatGPT knows exactly how a well-written answer looks like but a lot of the time it doesn’t know what the right answer is, which means it’s incredibly easy to be fooled by ChatGPT and believe even its wrong answers.
a big problem with it is that if you don't know a subject well enough, you can't know if the answer from ChatGPT is real or not. for programming, you can test it and with knowledge of other languages, you can get something done quickly. but for japanese i found that i can't know if the answers are correct or not, so i decided against using it
