Yes, I see what you mean. But just like you're being less productive when you try to instruct someone else on how to do things, if you follow that path with ChatGPT you'll likely be less productive too. I think ChatGPT adds more value when you ask things you don't quite know or figured out yet. Sometimes it hallucinates, which you can usually figure out quickly, but sometimes it does give good insights which would take longer for you to get than the time you lose by checking hallucinations. It's a decent advisor. It's a rubber duck on steroids.

I guess copilot is a bit different in that regard though, I haven't used that much, but I heard it's good at writing unit tests.

PS: you should probably not refer to a someone else as "it", specially if you are more senior than them.
