Yeah, this author sounds more of an up-and-coming software developer. The cited example is something that someone should be easily able to do in their day to day language.

The ability for chatGPT to essentially translate/expand your knowledge out to other languages (eg “how do I read in a file to utf8 again” ). It’s all just more leverage and power to solve the mundane, faster. The key point is you have to know the rough solution space already.

This is bad. If you don’t have newbie programmers, you won’t have senior programmers.
