It's great at this, and I use it like this a lot.
Like I know how to write the code, and exactly how I want it to be, but I faster describe that in words and let GPT4 write it out like I want it to, than to write it out myself. Even in the cases when the code isn't even boilerplate.
Sometimes the system prompts need a bit of tuning, but time spent on that tends to even out after some usage.
