I teach Python and Data Science for a living. I just ran through my fundamentals of Python course project with ChatGPT this morning. I was able to create a modern Python project layout, unit tests, documentation, comments, types, and a command line interface by copying and pasting code.
And the code was decent. It did have some problems coming up with the correct assertions for some of the unit tests.
For folks with an understanding of coding, this will be a huge boon to productivity and quality. However, this is not a tool that newbies (currently) will be able to use without any understanding of code.
I view it like a very powerful spell checker or grammar checker for a word processor right now. You need to have a direction you want to go, and if so this will get you there much faster with a better end product.
