All of these tools need their hand held. So anything they generate or do still needs to be checked by humans that have their own separate workload to worry about.

I use GitHub Copilot and will bounce code questions off of ChatGPT, but I never copy/paste. I’ll iterate through small bits and usually have an idea of approach before asking it anything.
