GPT-4 is pretty bad at generating Python. It kind of works as well as combining 2-3 stack overflow questions, but it can't tell that the combination is sane.
I mostly agree with what the others are saying. It can generate boilerplate and it can generate simple API calls when there are lots of examples in the training set.
Generating Go is probably easier because at least you get compiler feedback.
Right now the only place it saves me time are with languages I don't know at all and with languages like Bash and SQL where I just can't bring myself to care enough to remember the long tail of more esoteric points that I don't use every day.
