I think you are probably helping your career by not exploring the tools at this time. In almost all tech, early adopters are rarely time savers, they are often the ones to explode (or if they are lucky just waste a ton of their time). Bless them. But the output I've seen from ChatGPT is so bad that I'm amazed the people who think it helps them are for real. I complained to a friend recently that we're drowning in spam-tier programming tutorials, giving the example of basic web-app database design. There are hundreds of tutorials that all cover roughly the same bare minimum basics, and only the basics, with some of them less safe than others. My friend put some of the queries through ChatGPT and what came back was... spam-tier crap that said to do one thing (separate user table and auth table) and in its example code did the other (put `password_hash` into the users table). This is an objective downgrade from the ocean of spam tier crap. Previously there were 999 tutorials that only covered the bare basics with not enough deep dive or "why its this way and not that way" material. Now there's that status quo, but also transparently wrong. This is not, I think, an isolated incident, but an illustrative one. So feel free to wait another year. If it's actually truly useful by then, I'm sure you'll notice and pick it up without trouble.
