This morning a person posted a question to the Reddit group r/Mathematica (https://www.reddit.com/r/Mathematica/comments/1s1fin2/can_ho...).

I asked GPT to write code to address their question and the code was quite acceptable drawing the circle and finding the correct intersection point. It would have take me about 40 minutes to write the code, so I would not have done it myself.

Currently, GPT is great for writing short programs. The results often have a bug or two that is easy to fix, but it's much faster to have GPT write the code. This works fine for projects that are less than 100 lines of code where you just want something that works.

This take was accurate about 2 years ago, up until perhaps one year ago. Current capabilities far exceed what you are outlining, for example using Claude Opus models in a harness such as Claude Code or OpenCode.
