There is a lot of office work that will overtime be optimized over time using gpt like services. I was tech savvy enough to know that a lot of office work that I do is repeatable and can be done using scripts but not good enough to write those scripts myself. Using Chat gpt allowed me to write those scripts it took me I think 15-20hrs to get the scripts working perfectly. I knew just a little bit of python scripting did not know anything about python pandas or xls writer etc but was able to create something that saves me I would estimate 20-25 hours a week.
In my opinion a lot of people here on hackernews as they are themselves good at programing underestimate how services like chat gpt can open a new world to non programmers. They also probably make the non inquisitive learn less. Previously to learn how to stop multiple snapd services using a script I would have googled and then cobbled together something today I just ask chatgpt and get a working script in less than a min.
