Hello,
I've been using ChatGPT 4.0 to help with my scripts. GPT has good understanding of Quantconnect and the code required. Sometimes GPT randomly deletes code from your script for no reason and a host of other issues. Curious if there are other AI bots I should try for scripting that you've had success with?
Thank you!
