FWIW IMO Useful trouble shooting hints via AI



This post is merely intended to point out a problem  that may still be in progress but AI worked

much like a knowledgeable person in the same room looking over my shoulder making

suggestions. When I described an erratic intermittent problem with capitalization, it came

back with multiple suggestions that I was able to rank in my order of preferences. Then

as typically happens, at least for me, I few snags happened while implementing the suggestion

but continuing interaction, brought clarification, and even would point where I had concerns

about being able to re-boot following the changes, two work-arounds were suggested prior

to reboot for "just-in-case". Am currently in process of evaluating this change following what

seems to have been a successful reboot. The important thing to me is we did not get side

tracked with the usual script of we need more information, etc, etc, etc. Instead the AI

acknowledged multiple possible causes and provided several top level approaches. At this point,

I am still evaluating the first approach that I chose from the recommended ones, but I had a

sense that the AI was able to "cut to the chase" quickly, much like having a knowledgeable

colleague nearby to interact with. YMMV. Different people have different preferences

as to how to approach a problem. JMO for one interaction on a problem that has bugged

me for years and recognized, just as AI did, that there are many things that could cause

the symptoms that I was seeing.
