Can ChatGPT have suspicions that a requirement isn’t quite right?

No, but I'd bet that it'll improve to the point of being able to determine ambiguous requirements and/or ones with insufficient detail.

Given the popularity of "NoCode" I reckon that managers & potential clients are more willing to meet in the middle than one would otherwise assume.

Since programming problems are recursively decomposable into sub-problems, all that would be required is to iterate on the ChatGPT-assisted requirements list until it's unambiguous and then repeat the process for each subproblem until the capabilities of AlphaCode are reached.
