A few months ago I was in a conversation with a couple buddies of mine, they talked about how chat GPT was going to end so many jobs including software engineering, which is my field. It was astonishing hearing people outside of my field tell me so confidently that chat GPT was going to completely replace software engineers. I played around with it and it can get some things right but it can also confidently spit out incorrect answers. I think as a tool for an engineer it would be good but not as a complete replacement.
