Just like being able to look up facts on the internet hasn't replaced actually knowing about stuff, being able to generate code snippets will not replace actually knowing how to build software. Many will think me dismissive, but even with the cool stuff it can do, gpt is more like a probabilistic interface into stack overflow than a replacement for a developer. And if a developer that worked for me ever said they got gpt to write part of our code, they would be fired (with discussion and warnings first and whatnot). I suspect a lower-end market will emerge where you can get someone to cobble together some chatbot written monstrosity for you at a discount, but we're a long way from developers being out of the loop.
