That I can know almost nothing about VimScript and Hljs, yet be productive in both, is the game changer! It immediately makes me more ambitious and confident in my personal projects, because I know that at least, I can "fake it". In a lot of cases (like my given example) the faking it is all I need. The only thing I needed to know about that JS syntax highlighting library was how to import it, the LLM handled the rest. It saved me a ton of time! I don't think anyone is claiming that ChatGPT is going to immediately replace programmers anymore, but it is increasing the speed at which I can grind through problems I don't have deep knowledge in. I wonder if these disagreements in ChatGPT's usefulness come down to peoples programming domains. I can see how if you're very knowledgeable and productive in a particular space, like say embedded C programming, and that's the only code you ever write, then ChatGPT doesn't have a lot to offer, because you already know everything you need to know to be effective. ChatGPT's nice for exploratory programming, it makes me a more creative person, in the literal sense that I'm creating more stuff now then I ever have.
