I have an entire team of colleagues who pay a subscription for it, and a girlfriend who pays for it also. She has Microsoft copilot at work and its useless, so she pays for chat gpt and it helps her deliver way more work much more quickly.
But I understand everyones milage may vary. I just see amazing value myself.
By the way, since we are on this topic - yesterday, I had the very bad luck of my Linux machine freezing exactly as it was doing a kernel build. Consequence was lots of corrupted files so I couldnt get into the desktop environment anymore.
With the help of chat gpt on mobile, I managed to fix a number of problems, like corrupted system libraries and gpg keys, and reinstall all the files from damaged packages, all without doing a full reinstall of the entire system. I could give it very strange error messages and it would help every step of the way.
I think its just incredible but sure, not everyone gets the same value from it.
Just very happy. You would be too if it saved your entire system. You think im lying about what happened for a Lemmy comment? What would be the benefit of that?
The entire system froze during an update while it was working on the kernel. Had to reboot. When it came up, lots of library files were empty under /usr/lib, including pulseaudio libs and other important ones. No graphical user interface would start. Gdm didnt start.

You sound like an ad. There’s no way you “corrupted system libraries” from a hard shutdown unless you were doing something funky.

Its the truth.
People lie literally fucking all the time on here. It’s only vaguely better than reddit in that regard.
And also it’s literally impossible for what your describing to happen. That’s just not have any to that works.
The only way would be your entire hard drive was failing and rampant corruption was happening. But you don’t just recover from that.
Its funny to read how confident you are, when I know it actually happened. :)
