When to use AI
by:
cyrus01337Collaborative AI tools like the Roblox Assistant, ChatGPT and extensions of these can be safely relied on for solving smaller issues like coming up with a name for something, or for a list of game ideas that fit a certain topic.
As of 31st March 2024, almost all AI tools found on websites are not tools that anyone should rely on for real solutions. Beginners shouldn’t because fake code can be generated, which isn’t fun to debug for you or those helping you. Non-beginners should use it solely for the name/idea generation, or for generating a feature/system that you have made before (it’s best to review something you know before blindly copying a potential hallucination).
Side Notes
- This does not apply to pathfinding, which does not affect how you code
- Assistive code AI tools, like Tabnine and Copilot, suffer from the same problems. Always review solutions they provide before accepting them
