The example I gave was the first big win I had with an LLM. I haven’t gone near stackoverflow since then.

Google works for the simple example I gave.

Using the bots though, it asks me if I want more information on targeted follow up questions that are quite good. I will often ask for those details or provide my own follow ups that are answered with the full context of the entire “conversation.” If it’s not for you, that’s fine, but I get value.
