For now ChatGPT will refuse to solve any bon-trivial programs, but i expect that getting behavior just right will require a prompt so specific that its actually hard than just writing the source code yourself.
It's one thing to ask GPT to write a high level script to trim 5s off a video using ffmpeg. It's another thing to ask GPT to make ffmpeg, or even to make a specific modification to ffmpeg.
It's hard to say how good GPT will be at real-world programming since we currently can't try it out. Maybe it can scale to the task, or maybe it can't, but i wouldn't say that programming is "finished".
