Agree or disagree with it, my overall point is that once you leave the safe-harbor of simple scripting, GPT falls off hard. It's entirely possible that I've just been pushing it too hard, but for a lot of queries I get conflicting, wrong or outdated suggestions. Trying to shoehorn it in as a problem-solver in those situations has repeatedly failed on me.

Yeah, kinda. If ChatGPT spends it's output tokens telling you wrong, unnecessary or unhelpful information, it's not usable. Once it passes a certain bar of unreliability, it becomes useless. I'm not sure any place I've worked at in the past would feel comfortable paying me to roll those dice with ChatGPT on their systems.
I'm not against people empowering themselves by delegating AI for programming. Knock yourself out, if you want to develop like that it is entirely your prerogative.
