It’s both under and over-hyped. The whole “AI is going to write your entire app for you with a couple sentences prompt” crowd is full of shit, but for small sections of code, variations on existing scripts and functions, writing tests, etc, GPT-4 is pretty incredible.
I work in data science and have to write a lot of repetitive stuff for parsing and cleaning data. It’s reduced my toil so dramatically in this respect, I can’t imagine going back to writing all that stuff again. I’m now much more ambitious in what I’ll experiment with as well because I know setting up the first stages of the data pipeline are going to be 10X less work than before.
