That's such an unnecessarily wordy explanation. The error message literally explained it to you concisely.

If it produces such an unnecessary output for such a simple error message god help you when it is more complicated.

Further more, ChatGPT cannot do deductive reasoning. It can only take existing chains of thought from its training set and swap out the keywords consistently to apply that same logic template to something else which may or may not fit to it correctly.

This is a bad idea. And if I'm perfectly honest, a waste of electricity. Save the planet and don't push this as a legitimate usage.

You're going hard with the waste of electricity bs.

The guy did a cool project, your comment is not constructive at all and just mean

I like his project, it's true that as a begginer these errors could be hard to understand sometimes. I don't think you should be mean and disrespectful to him if you don't like his idea.

Ypu should come up with more ideas to make his idea better. It would be a better use of electricity than just what you did.

Sustainability in ML and HPC is a huge part of my job.

If you dont consider that important and think its bs that doesnt actually change that an important part of my job is to consider it.

At no point was I mean to OP. Im not being mean to a person who is littering by telling them not to litter. And I'm not being mean to a person making and distributing confetti as their hobby by pointing out how it is also littering.

We're not at you job. It's a reddit post about someone who's trying to build a tool to help other people.

If you're so good at your job, you might want to give insight or knowledge on how to improve his project.

Just saying the project is trash and a waste is not helping anybody here

Okay. Allow me to use my knowledge sustainability in HPC to help you solve this problem in a more environmentally friendly way.

GPS costs pennies to produce this type of output, even with a 100% carbon tax such that the cost of pollution was internalized, it would cost less than a dime.

If you're going to be a useful expert reducing waste, you should account for the actual magnitude of the waste before you scold others. This is why half our public will to be environmental was blown on paper straws.

The benefit of testing out new ways to use GPT to code faster clearly outweighs the dollars of electricity spent running the model, if you can't see those tradeoffs but instead scold any miniscule use of electricity you don't like, I believe you are a hindrance to saving the planet.

It's not too wordy if you're a beginner.

I teach high school kids coding. It looks really useful. Ignore Mr. Naysayer below.

Organizations consider the energy impact of deploying different types of models for different purposes. It really is that simple.

Well if you are a programmer, an error like this is trivial and the explanation is wordy.

On the other hand, the first paragraph is close to a perfect explanation of the issue for a programming student. It does not expect you to know programming terminology, and reads like a textbook.

Then maybe the programming student should read a book that covers debugging. They can read that in an offline fashion, and then apply that knowledge when it comes up in practice.

I think it will be great for programmers just starting out. The first few weeks only tho
