I’ve used it to create a little dashboard page for my home sever - it made a page that displays the uptime, network status, the remaining disc space, links to all my hosted services (including indicators showing if they are online or offline) automatically grabbing the favicon for the links etc

Everything nicely styled and formatted in a dark theme with status colours etc

It did absolutely everything, picked the language added step by step instructions of setting it up even suggestions on styling options.

I made this dumb thing with it

It can handle the entire bee movie script in one go.

I use ChstGPT as a slightly-higher-tech version of my desktop rubber duck. Whenever I'm stuck at work, I explain ChatGPT what I'm trying to accomplish and how, and in the process of correcting ChatGPT to actually get working code, most of the time I find a better solution during my explanations.

Crazy that you are all using it for entire projects! I'm using it when I get stuck programming with some traceback I can't resolve or similar, mostly for Python/Django. Even then it often forgets to close a loop or similar.

used it to create an animated birthday card. end result was quite good and lots quicker than coding it all manually. it's better at basic css and javascript for layout and effects than I would be.

I tried with GPT 3.5 to make a site with gamification currency and a job board users could apply to or post tasks.

It introduced me to the world of Wordpress (and helped me figure out some free hosting options). Unfortunately the plug-ins it told me to use conflicted with each other and somehow bricked everything to the point where I couldn’t figure out a way to troubleshoot. I gave up on the experiment.

If I try again, I’ll use 4.0 and have it code the site from scratch (JavaScript & HTML5) without using so much middleware.

I used it to build a character.ai competitor that I got bored with and didn’t finish passed the proof of concept. React programming, typescript, AWS CDK, typescript APIs, helped me come up with the high level architecture with the CloudFront configuration etc etc etc. Took me about a month working on it after work to get the working prototype built including Cognito+Google login working and CICD pipeline running.

Never used it for a website or web app, but I've used it for getting scripts for managing my servers started. It always requires a lot of refactoring to make it actually usable. Since I know when the code is wrong, I can coax it through fixing the code itself, but it's faster to just change it myself. I don't think a non-coder would get a whole lot of useful code out of it.

I'm converting a bunch of fixed-width reports to html at work. Used it to generate a basic left-right-center header for them. Just some basic boiler plate stuff, but way easier than googling. I'm not ready to try and have it create something I can't easily review/validate. I'm sure there's a non-zero number of examples it was trained on saying "This is just a simple example, don't actually do this in production".
