When I have used it I asked it to help me with VueJS but whilst it knew about version 3 (which is substantially different to V2) it didn't know the very latest version.
Isn't this going to be problematic if it's trying to help code but has outdated information? Won't this result in more code being written/tied to older languages/framework versions?
In my experience, because GPT outputs code tied to particular versions of software, I use those as it's far quicker to copy/paste/edit than reading the latest docs, where GPT is absolutely useless as it simply doesn't know about the latest code and isn't able to produce working snippets.
So the real deal would be if GPT knows about the latest software instantly the moment it's published (ingesting docs data, any stackoverflow Q/A's etc).
Here is what GPT 4o-mini told me
