ChatGPT Helped A Developer Finish A Week's Work In 3 Hours - Here's How It Works
— Gaurav Bisen (@thepmfguy) June 5, 2025 Real-Life Examples: How Developers Are Using ChatGPT for Faster Results One developer shared their experience of how ChatGPT saved them 7 hours on a single project. The task involved creating an API for an application, and using ChatGPT, they were able to: Generate API routes and endpoints for basic CRUD operations. Write detailed documentation to accompany the API. Fix bugs in the application logic that were causing errors during testing. By automating these processes with ChatGPT, the developer was able to spend more time on fine-tuning the user interface and optimizing the overall performance of the app. Limitations of ChatGPT in Development While ChatGPT offers immense benefits, it's not without its limitations: Complex problem-solving: While ChatGPT excels at basic coding tasks, it may struggle with highly complex or niche technical problems that require deep domain-specific knowledge. Context retention: Although ChatGPT is capable of processing code snippets, it sometimes lacks the ability to understand long-term project context, especially for larger projects that span multiple files. Creative tasks: For highly creative coding challenges that require out-of-the-box thinking, ChatGPT might not always provide the best solution. Despite these limitations, ChatGPT remains a powerful tool for developers, particularly when used in conjunction with other AI models within a platform like Chatronix. Conclusion: The Future of AI in Development In 2025, AI tools like ChatGPT are revolutionizing the development process. From generating code to debugging and automating repetitive tasks, developers are increasingly relying on AI to accelerate their workflows and boost productivity. While ChatGPT is a fantastic tool on its own, platforms like Chatronix take the experience further by offering multiple AI models in one unified space. This allows developers to compare outputs, automate even more tasks, and optimize their workflows for greater success. Curious to see how Chatronix can improve your development process? Try it today and experience the future of coding. Emily Henry writes for UKWritings Reviews and Write My Research Paper . She writes articles on many subjects including writing great resumes.

China Market Update: Meituan Receives Outsized Mainland Flow, Week In Review
CLN KraneShares Asian equities ended a positive week mixed, led by India following a larger-than-expected rate cut (0.50% vs. 0.25%). South Korea was closed for Memorial Day, and Indonesia, Pakistan, and the Philippines were closed for Eid al-Adha, also known as the Feast of Sacrifice, 'a festival to honor the willingness of the Prophet Ibrahim to follow the command of Allah to sacrifice his son.' Hong Kong and Mainland China saw profit taking in recent growth and technology outperformers despite the Trump-Xi call, as some pointed to a lack of details, though President Trump confirmed the US would be represented by Bessent, Lutnick, and Greer at a yet-to-be-determined location. The markets had risen on the chatter of a call in another example of markets' forward-looking nature, i.e., buy the rumor and sell the news. Short-video platform Kuaishou Technology gained +8.44% as the company announced its Kling AI, an AI online video generator, will generate $100 million in revenue by February of 2026. E-commerce names, including Alibaba and which fell -1.44% and -1.45%, as several provinces, including Jiangsu and Chongqing, announced they had run out of home appliance subsidies to be used in the 618 (June 18) E-Commerce sales event. I suspect the issue will be resolved in short order. Electric vehicle (EV) stocks, including BYD, which fell -2.18%, Xiaomi, which fell -2.12%, Li Auto, which was flat, and XPeng, which fell -1.77%, were mostly lower on yesterday's news of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology's (MIIT) price war warning. It seems like a positive to me! Value plays such as telecom and precious metals outperformed. Mainland investors bought the dip in Hong Kong, with $862 million worth of net buying via Southbound Stock Connect. Meituan saw another day of strong net inflow, as 13.54% of shares are now held by Mainland investors, up from only 11% earlier this year. I don't know what's driving Mainland investors' significant Meituan inflows, at 200 million shares bought, but it is interesting. Like Hong Kong, value stocks outperformed growth stocks in Shanghai and Shenzhen, as oil, precious metals, and aerospace stocks rallied. May's consumer price index (CPI) and producer price index (PPI) will be reported on Sunday. The US Treasury did not label China a currency manipulator, though it does highlight the strength of the Renminbi versus the US dollar, recently. CNY hit a low of 7.34 CNY per USD on April 9th following Liberation Day, though CNY has rallied to 7.18 (CNY is quoted USD per CNY, so a decline is appreciation versus the US dollar). More surprising is that Hong Kong and US-listed China stocks haven't rallied more due to the appreciation of the underlying businesses, as their revenues are denominated in Renminbi. Hopefully, we'll see this move soon!
