Overwhelmingly students found the response from ChatGPT to be more helpful than the error messages from R
I found ChatGPT to be incredibly helpful to diagnose errors in codes. The error message tells you where the error is however it doesn’t show you how to fix it. Sometimes you are given a recommendation, however not every time. ChatGPT shows you what is wrong and gives you instructions to fix your code. On one of the instructions it wasn’t as clear as I wanted it to be so I asked ChatGPT to explain further, which it did. This tool is very helpful when trying to diagnose problems and further understand why they happen.
Mixed responses on how likely use ChatGPT in programming
On a scale of one to five, I would give it a solid four. It is a very helpful tool in assisting with programming. I would give it a 5 out of 5 if I was not wary about the technology and the problems that can come from it such as its accuracy, but nonetheless, it is a helpful tool.
Yes and no. It was nice to have more flushed out feedback than a simple error message. But, due to some confusion on part of the chatbot and unclear/misleading responses, I would not trust my life or grade to this machine.
