Can anyone relate to this story?
So I was having AI help me today build a line graph chart for sign-ups, and you can see how it evolved after each prompt generation.
Sometimes the AI reminds me a little bit like a child because you give it a task and it says, "Oh, I can do this by myself. I don't need your help, Dad."
But I did give it two chances to fix it. In the second attempt, I said that it was very crowded and it should use the entire space to make this way more readable.
And then in the last attempt, I said: "I know that there are NPM packages out there that would be able to have a line graph that is out of the box already made for this type of request. Let's look into that option. "
And that's where you finally see the final line graph being made and it found a NPM package that could be used.
I'm always telling students out there, who are doing this by hand, that if you are thinking about something that would really make your app more useful (ie a calendar modal, pie charts..etc), there might already be something out there that would make your job way easier.
