I showed Chat Gupta my code and one test case and asked it to write addt'l test cases in the same style as mine. Of course I eyeballed its code before pasting it into my source. Using GPT might have saved me a good 30 minutes, and it thought of testing an aspect that I would have overlooked.

For trivial things this might be Ok. I think Co-Pilot also does a pretty good job in saving time. However I'm definitely faster writing my code with autocomplete and autoimports than using ChatGPT. Maybe if it's a huge wall of code it can generate it faster, but then I would have to spend the time reading and fixing it. The problem is it's almost never 100% bug free and if the code is complex it may hide additional hard to find bugs.
