This is so true for GPT’s benefit. As an anecdote here: We wrote some C++ code involving multiple HTTP servers, where while we ultimately wrote the exact code we wanted ourselves, but the starting code provided to us by ChatGPT really helped speed up the process to having finished off the C++ code’s core feature down in one small coding session.

I think the “starting things from scratch” in cases like these can be partially mentally exhausting when having to search the web.
