      Mostly just simple Python scripts to automate stuff in a datacenter, but after the release of an assistant feature last week I’ve written a full-stack app using almost nothing but ChatGPT. The app is using FastAPI, Docker, and Nginx as the reverse proxy and for web auth.

        Yeah that makes sense. The success rate might fall off a cliff in more complex software projects. E.g. applications that require designs beyond 10 UML boxes with hundreds of thousands of lines, especially not written in JS/Python.

          I think my employer owns it. I didn’t write any of it myself; you could also ask ChatGPT to write the code for you. Start with a simple python script to connect to OpenAI, get it to print the response, then you can add the assistant API calls once that’s working. I knew I wanted to use Docker and Nginx, and I picked FastAPI from a list of 5 web frameworks it gave me when I asked how to serve the app.
