ChatGPT is a powerful coding assistant 💻

But yet everyone, including my friends, isn't using it. Today, we'll share with you how you can use ChatGPT for coding like a pro.

To be honest, I haven’t explored all the capabilities of this phenomenal AI model.

ChatGPT is mysterious. Powerful. And exceedingly capable.

As a coder and writer, I hate starting from scratch because it takes a lot of time.

That’s why you need AI to do the work.

Here’s a starter’s guide to using ChatGPT for coding:

Together with Bluedot AI:

Bluedot is the first bot-free meeting recorder for Google Meet.

This AI Chrome Extension records your Google Meet calls and automates meeting notes.

Unlike other tools, it does not use bots to record your calls.
