This applies to me. GPT4 increases the speed of simple tasks significantly.

I needed a WordPress plugin but I'm not a WordPress developer and it's been a while since I spent much time in PHP. Ultimately I don't have time to come up to speed on this and I just want the plugin now.

I wrote a ChatGPT prompt explaining the plugin in great detail, and it responded with the entire plugin. I installed it and it worked on the first try. I went back and forth for a few iterations to adjust things like css and button titles and now it's running on a live site.

Had I assigned the project to someone else, I'd still have needed to write the "prompt" and I'm not sure it would have saved me any time.
