That’s a bold statement coming from someone with (respectfully) not very much experience with programming. I’ve tried using GPT-4 for my work that involves firmware engineering, as well as some design questions regarding backend web services in Go, and it was pretty unhelpful in both cases (and at times dangerous in memory constrained environments). That being said, I’m not willing to write it off completely. I’m sure it’s useful for some like yourself and not useful for others like me. But ultimately the world of programming extends way beyond JavaScript apps. Especially when it comes to things that are new and challenging.

I don't mean new and challenging in some general sense, I mean new and challenging to you personally.

I have no doubt someone with more experience such as yourself will find GPT-4 less useful for your highly specialized work.

The next time you are a beginner again - not necessarily even in technical work - give it a try.
