“ today ChatGPT would like outperform a highschool competitive programming competition.”

Google did it first. You input a search string, find results on first or second attempt and then copy and paste the code.

Not even a close comparison.

At best, Googling StackOverflow gets me one function, but only if I know the right keywords and it is short. ChatGPT, I can (and have!) given it example data and said "make a python script to parse this", and it not only gives me code, not only does it work, but when I ask it to extend this to do more or differently, the changes also work coherently with the previous results. For example: https://github.com/BenWheatley/Studies-of-AI/blob/main/codin...

Your highschool must have had pretty terrible programmers...
