Most of the code I write is highly focused on the APIs and concepts specific to my own company. Anything general enough to be amenable to ChatGPT I feel I could generally get from a third party library or StackOverflow. Maybe it will replace StackOverflow? But if it does, where will it get the next generation of answers from?
I do see lots of positives and use cases for more narrowly defined tools that help the programmer and make him/her more productive and powerful.
For example, I've been playing with a new Terminal app (Warp) the lets you type plain English at the prompt. It then translates it to the proper bash command using GPT3. It's brilliant, it works, and it doesn't put me out of a job. It just makes me more productive and more able to focus on the problems specific to my company.
