I think part of the issue is that your mileage will vary greatly depending on what your problem domain and language of choice is. People working with languages and problems chatgpt works well in have a hard time believing the hard fails in other domains and vice versa. I wrote a python script the other day to delete some old xcode devices lower than a certain ios version complete witth options with a just a few back and forths with chatGPT. My knowledge of python is extremely basic and the code just worked out of the box. Then yesterday I asked for the code to tell if a device is lidar enabled in Objective-C and it failed to give me compilable code 4 times in a row until I finally gave up and went back to the docs. The correct answer is one line. I for one am pretty excited about this, things that a lot of people have done before should be easy, leaves more brain space for the tough stuff.


What was the answer, if you don't mind? ChatGPT (3.5) days to use isCollaborationEnabled on the ARWorldTrackingConfiguration class which doesn't seem quite right based on the docs.

I wonder if this is a GI/GO problem. Apple's poor documentation of features being the garbage in.


Sure, this was what I ended up using:

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/arkit/arworldtrack...

I believe there are multiple ways, part of the problem might be Apple doing the Apple thing where their user philosophy bleeds into their tech. They don't want you checking for a specific sensor or device capability they want you to check if whatever feature you want is enabled.
