My hot take is that GPT is getting better everyday at generating complicated and correct code that's maintainable, but its still got quite a ways to go.

On the other hand today it's already passably good at generating stuff that requires less precision and less accuracy (i.e. humanities type stuff, marketing, managerial/secretarial tasks, etc.).

So while you might be looking at your own CS job eventually being in jeopardy, whole swaths of alternative careers you aren't looking at are probably way, way more in jeopardy.

Really? My experience is that it gets better every release (every few months to a year) and then gradually worse until the next release.


It the business model of a great demo to get people to signup and reduce resources each release to make it lose less money. Rise and repeat.

Meanwhile the free version is trying to keep up with other vender so they are forced to give away more and the difference between the two versions (paid/free) after a period of time favours the free. version
