There is a bit of learning curve to figuring out the most effective ways to collaboratively code with GPT, either through aider or other UXs. My best piece of advice is taken from aider's tips list and applies broadly to coding with LLMs or solo:

Large changes are best performed as a sequence of thoughtful bite sized steps, where you plan out the approach and overall design. Walk GPT through changes like you might with a junior dev. Ask for a refactor to prepare, then ask for the actual change. Spend the time to ask for code quality/structure improvements.
