This has been my experience; I'll have an straightforward and obvious function that will nevertheless take me 20 minutes to write, so I'll think "well, let's see if ChatGPT can just knock it out for me". I then spend the next hour pointing out to the stupid thing the edge cases it doesn't handle and various other failure modes that a real programmer would never miss.; it replies "you're right" followed by a decently accurate restatement of the defect, then turns around and produces a new version that doesn't fix it, and/or introduces a new one. In the end i give up and write it myself.
