This is a good question, and I don't think you should be downvoted.
It is important for several reasons:
- As other commenters pointed out, filtering, adapting and integrating ChatGPT output has a better ROI with experts.
- An expert will know the ROI of using ChatGPT, including on the long run, and can assess if it's worth it or not. A non expert will use it for as long as it works, and can hit a wall of technical debts accumulated from the GPT usage that will now sunk the cost of the entire operation.
- Expertise comes with a lot of implicit knowledge that ChatGPT doesn't access to.
- ChatGPT doesn't learn from mistakes in the way humans does. And humans don't share the mistakes they made as much. And experts have made all the mistakes.
- ChatGPT tries very hard not to not be opinionated, or to have an opinion that will offend the least amount of people. IRL though, you want opinionated takes.
There are, however, many situations where being an expert to benefit from ChatGPT is no required. I also find that sometimes being an expert prevents me from getting the most of ChatGPT, because I stick to what I know instead of embracing novel workflows. I have a friend coding things with repeated ChatGPT copy/paste loops over days, and they have done great things with it.
