I mean for tech stuff it's fantastic. I could spend 30 minutes working out a regex to grep the logs in the format I need or I could have a back and forth with ChatGPT and get it sorted in 5.
I still don't want it to write my TV or movies. Or code to a significant degree.
On the flip side, anytime I've tried to use it to write python scripts for me, it always seems to get them slightly wrong. Nothing that a little troubleshooting can't handle, and certainly helps to get me in the ballpark of what I'm looking for, but I think it still has a little ways to go for specific coding use cases.
I think the key there is that ChatGPT isn't able to run its own code, so all it can do is generate code which "looks" right, which in practice is close to functional but not quite. In order for the code it writes to reliably work, I think it would need a builtin interpreter/compiler to actually run the code, and for it to iterate constantly making small modifications until the code runs, then return the final result to the user.
The new code interpreter is able to run its own code, but i haven’t personally tested it to see if its code is more often functional.
