Maybe it would help me, not sure. I haven't been impressed with what I've seen when team members have "run stuff through chatgpt". (I'm senior, been doing this professionally for 25 years. Made my share of mistakes, supported my code for a decade or two.)
My main issue at the moment with Junior devs is getting stuck in the weeds, chasing what they think is a syntax error, but not seeing (or hearing) that what they have is a lack of understanding. Some of that is experience, some of that is probably not being able to read the code and internalize what it all means, or make good test cases to exercise it.
If you can't produce the code, and have a sketchy grasp of reasoning it out, debugging it is going to be a step too far. And the AIs are (hopefully) going to be giving you things that look right, there will be subtle bugs. This puts it in the dangerous quadrant.
