10x seems like a stretch, but I agree. I have a chatgpt window open most of my workday now too. "Hey chatgpt - help me write this mathematical equation in latex. Hey chatgpt - give me an example nodejs program that reads a line-delimited JSON file without loading the whole thing in memory first". "Hey chatgpt - What are the popular & good python libraries for drawing an SVG scatter plot of some data? Give me some example code for each library."

It depends on what you're doing of course. With your example queries I'd also expect a lower boost, but the benefits should still be there. Where it really shines is if you already know exactly what you want and how you want it and you merely need someone to write it in code in a common language.
