This is amazing. Nice to see how Simon uses various tools to achieve his goals in his daily writeups. It might not be "intelligence" but it's still a very subtle search engine for programmers with a human language interface.

I always found it a bit tedious to have to type out everything when you know you want a loop over and array or something. Now you can just tell ChatGPT what you want and let it do the typing. Disregarding the mistakes it makes while appearing confident about its answers :-)

Now programmers can finally be directors where ChatGPT is the film team or the cinematographer. Sometimes it's overconfident and you need to correct it to conform to your imagination. Also as a programmer/director you still need a lot of knowledge to ask the right questions, judge the answers and so on (as demonstrated in Simon's writeups).
