I'm 45. Programming to some degree for 37 years. Same thing I always ask -- are you using GPT4 or 3.5? Can be a very big difference.

I think it really depends on what kind of programming you are doing as much as something like age. If you are trying to solve new problems in a new programming language or framework, then it will make more sense to get machine help than if you have a lot of experience in similar problems with the same language and libraries.

But that equation changes with GPT4 and especially beyond. Eventually you will probably try GPT4/5/ whatever and start using it.

I have never tried GPT of any version, for any purpose.
