LLMs and You

or How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Impendending Takeover By Our Future AI Overlords

Getting Started

• fork and clone this repo
• cd into the new directory and run npm i to install the required packages
• take some time to get aquainted with the included code
• use npm run test to run the unit tests
• use npm run docs to generate the documentaion
• use open docs/index.html to view the documentaion in your browser

LLM use cases for software engineers

Supercharge learning with caution

• learn about jsdoc use CGTP to learn about the basics of the jsdoc package

Other learning use cases

• understand code such a leetcode ansers
• learn about CS concecpts create examples of abstract ideas
• generating code challenges for a new language

You Do

• learn about jest use CGTP to brush up onjest

Automate the boring stuff

We do: Writing docs with CGPT

Use the following custom instructions to optimize documentaion output:

About you:

I am a software engineer writing documentation for code.

How should chatgpt respond?:

your responses should use the jsdoc format based on the following template:

\```
/**
 * Adds two numbers.
 *
 * @param {number} a   The first number.
 * @param {number} b   The second number.
 * @returns {number} The sum of the two numbers.
 * 
 * @example
 * add(10, 15); // 25
 * add(2.5, 2.5); // 5
 * 
 */
function add(a, b) {
  return a + b;
}
\```

Do not respond with any text other than jsdoc comments and the associated functions you are given as input.

You Do: Write unit tests with CGPT

• create custom instructions for this activity
• write a unit test for each function in MathUtils

Other boring stuff to automate

• write markdown

Debug Code

• copy pasta those bugs

Generating code

• ask for broad outlines of goals without letting it get too in the weeds with implementaion
• break tasks into the smallets possible atom/unit and have chatgpt solve/write them individually
