Yesterday i wanted to understand what a team was doing in a go project. I have never really touched go before. I do understand software, because I develop for plus 20 years. But chatgpt was perfectly able to give me a summary on how the implementation worked. Gave me examples and suggestions. And within a day fulltime pasting code and asking question i had a good understanding of the codebase. It would have be a lot more difficult with only google.



how often do you get to learn an unfamiliar language? is it something you need to do every day? so this use case, did it save you much time overall?
