Few days ago I had issue with IPsec VPN behind NAT. I spend few hours Googling around, tinkering with system, I had some rough understanding of what goes wrong, but not much and I had no idea how to solve this issue.
I made a very exhaustive question to ChatGPT o1-preview, including all information I though is relevant. Something like good forums question. Well, 10 seconds later it spew me a working solution. I was ashamed, because I have 20 years of experience under my belt and this model solved non-trivial task much better than me.
I was ashamed but at the same time that's a superpower. And I'm ready to pay $200 to get solid answers that I just can't get in a reasonable timeframe.
It is really great when it works, but challenge is I've had it sometimes not understanding a detailed programming question and it confidently gives an incorrect answer. Going back and forth a few times ends up clear it really does not know answer, but I end up going in circles. I know LLMs can't really tell you "sorry I don't know this one", but I wish they could.
The exhaustive question makes ChatGPT reconstruct your answer in real-time, while all you need to do is sleep; your brain will construct the answer and deliver it tomorrow morning.
The benefit of getting an answer immediately rather than tomorrow morning is why people are sometimes paid more for on-call rates rather than everyone being 9-5.
(Now I think if of the idiom, when did we switch to 9-6? I've never had a 9-5).
