i have been using GTP3, chatGPT, Bing i think i know how to use them very wel. And I still confused by all the people claiming that these tools will replace Jobos like programing, etc. Small demos producing small apps are not even near what a real app development cycle really are. It can generate some code that might work, but then good luck asking it to fix when it does not work on your bigger proyect. It can certainly empower these jobs, but i still fin really hard to see a near future where these will be completely automated. Plus please try to talk logically with these tools, most of the times they will fail and alucinate with simple logical questions. You should never rely directly from these outputs, you still have the job to understand (have the knowledge) and verify them. It clearly is a case of premature hype, these tools are not that capable as people want or fear to believe.

I've done what I'd describe as pair programming with GPT-4 yesterday rebuilding my blog from Ghost over to Next.js. Using tailwind CSS, we tried and worked through animations and other such tricky aspects I usually find tedius but after a mistake or two, we tried different things and eventually ChatGPT nailed it and saved me lots of time. The keyword in your comment is "premature" hype. I'm betting that within this decade we'll see how far all this will be going and that's quite some change at a pace we haven't dealt with before. Let's see what you think in 5-10 years.

You, like many others, are basing your opinion on the current state of LLMs/GPT. And I totally agree with you, the current GTP-4 version might not replace programmers. But how about future iterations? Personally I can't fathom what the next few years will bring us in this area, especially considering the jump GPT 3.5 to GPT 4 has made in such a short time frame. I'm almost convinced that it will make a lot of jobs obsolete in the future, including some programmer jobs, but I'm not bold enough and make a prediction when this will happen, be it in 2, 4, 10 or 20 years.
