I was able to criticize it, but had serious doubts I could phrase things
well enough that ChatGPT would understand the problem. I have had a hard
enough time explaining it to actual people. The fact it understood my
one-sentence clarification well enought to zero in on what I believe to be
a workable solution was nothing sort of amazing. I had previous spent two
month trying to figure this out with no success.

The other part I like is that this is like StackOverflow without all of the
snarking responses :-)
