If you’ve been using GPT-4 to help you code, how much more productive has it made you?

Dramatically reduced time spent on debugging and stack overflow

Insanely more productive! In part b/c I lack pro-level coding skills but, even so, this a.m. it generated a highly customized text summarizer for me in 70 loc using only standard libraries and it just worked.

Probably over 50% time reduction on a wide variety of tasks. It makes tedious things fun, which is an intangible but arguably more important.

I literally decided to not hire a junior engineer because after a trial I got more time back with better output

Incredibly problem dependent. Goes from 0 to about 2x or 3x for me.

50/60% but also starting to see the dark side of it. Some times o over rely on it and end up spending times on things that didn’t really matter.

GPT-3.5 and 4 are both really useful for debugging issues and familiarizing with tools or frameworks. While coding, I’ve been using GitHub copilot for a while and now I can’t live without it. I’d say the tedious tasks such as writing unit tests or doing crud endpoints can be coded 70%+ faster.

Great. I'm not an engineer and have built things I'd need to assign to someone else.
