Lets take an example from Demo of =GPT3() as a spreadsheet feature - https://twitter.com/shubroski/status/1587136794797244417 /// https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33411748

Consider the time it would take to do manual entry for each of those examples compared with the time it takes to verify that the generated content is correct.

"Are these the correct state and zip codes?" is much faster than typing it by hand. You just ask yourself "is MA the correct state code for Massachusetts? Yep, next" rather than "Massachusetts that's... (lookup) MA, type MA; next that one is MI, already a state code ..." and down the list.

I would be willing to content that GPT will do the list faster and with better accuracy than a human doing the same work (that would also need to be checked for correctness).
