I find GPT-4 pretty amazing at coding myself. I have learnt basic R language + a particular package within it, enough to solve an emergency issue that barred us from launching a product for a coding competition within 24 hours of only having heard of the language before, just barely meeting our deadline. The team was amazed and I could never have done it without GPT-4.
Otherwise I'm regularly coding with it as an assistant while it's not always 100% correct, it's often decimating the time especially when I can request things like a website skeleton layout and it just seamlessly doing it all using CSS flow layouts and whatnot. I ask it to implement a Javascript library for a chat-style interface with bubbles and just bam it's there, even adapted for existing code.
I'll still have to debug and I _will_ still find issues occasionally but the win is still often enormous for me.
ChatGPT 3.5 though. That's mostly just a toy, yes.
