No, it couldn’t. The tools to which you compare require a different or complementary set of skills to use, and the user must understand the output or mode of operation that the tool conveys.

Prompt engineering (within the context of ChatGPT) is more useful for jailbreaking than using it for its intended purpose, aside from which, the complaint of the OP from the linked post is that their coworkers do not understand the output, if they did, they would not rely on ChatGPT as a smokescreen.

What about googling then? I often google how to do X while writing code or developing because I don't remember the exact CLI flags and reading the manpage takes more time than asking google. I'm not a big LLM user yet but I imagine a lot of people have replaced googling with ChatGPT in their workflow.
