I recently used chatGPT4 with a python plugin to develop code to handle a basic large dataset munging task. It took 30 minutes of iteration to get workable code. The actual processing took four hours of compute time and went off without a hitch.
Can I write that code myself? Yes of course, but that comes at the cost of more of my limited time and attention. Instead I spent the time working on the project plan and pipeline architecture for the larger project.
I won’t get any points for my ability to slog through a tedious hand-programming chore. The extra focus on the overall project structure is where I will get my reward.
Why not? Efficiency.
