FWIW this is the #1 best use case I've found for ChatGPT. I recently started learning golang and as an experiment decided to use nothing but ChatGPT for reference/documentation. So far, ChatGPT has satisfied roughly 100% of my questions. A lot of the questions were like "what's the go equivalent of X in JS/TS?".
The returns seem to be diminishing after ~6 weeks, but the first 2-3 weeks were the least friction I've ever encountered learning basically any new topic. It was kind of wild, I don't remember getting stuck even a single time, it was just super high-density progress, non-stop.
More generally, the situation where "I have a good amount of generic knowledge, so I know what I want, but I don't have the specific knowledge I need" seems to be a sweet spot for ChatGPT.
