Look back at crypto and apply the same logic. It "changed everything" if you are part of the money makers, for the average joe nothing changed

Your twit-xamples compare two different things. ChatGPT can pass exams [0] and IQ tests [1], but that doesn't mean it's a "strong AI", just that it's good at talking -- or, rather, creating text output that humans can ascribe thoughtfulness to, because, hey, it's getting the questions right! As right as someone with an IQ of 83 can, anyway. Whether it's "actually" thinking is another question entirely -- but does that matter?! If it -- or its soon-to-be-created, ever-more-complex descendants -- is good enough at aping a human, it'll probably replace a bunch of human jobs. There probably aren't enough "prompt engineer" positions for all the displaced humans to fill.
There's your "change everything" -- it might not be a "strong AI", but if people can argue that Searle's Chinese Room [2] is "actually" talking, and it says useful, monetizable things, then it's close enough to be disruptive.

I use chatgpt to write code. If it gets a bit better and can connected to an editor to create files, update existing files developer productivity will go through the roof

I have been saying lately "if your job can be replaced by AI, it should". I know that sounds crass, but I'm a person who is always trying to replace my tasks with small shell scripts leaving only the real thinking to be the stuff that I do.
I remember a long time ago Joel from Joel on Software made a post/comment (I can't find it, so it must have been a comment) about how the hard part of programming is interpreting the spec into code, and that programmers often get mad because the "spec isn't complete". Of course the spec isn't complete, if it were complete, it would cover every edge case and be as complex as the code. If you could have AI turn a spec into code, then the real intelligence goes into writing the spec to cover the complexity.
It's ok if AI can generate boiler plate for functions or even regurgitate leet code solutions (heck, I gave it the typical "coding challenge" we use here as our first filter and it did a good job). The real intelligence in development is to know what algorithm you want to use for your current problem.
So to me ChatGPT isn't that big of a deal. It does some neat things, and it may make some jobs redundant, but I don't see how it could replace the real value that humans bring to a problem. It may keep replacing the bottom tier workers, but that just frees people up to bring value higher up the value chain.

#18I've never took the time to learn regex. But chatgpt is pretty good at it, used it quite a lot, really impressive.

I already fear my productivity drop when OpenAI finally takes ChatGPT offline.
Re: ChatGPT Cheat Sheet
#20The "Correct ChatGPT on Its Knowledge" section could be misinterpreted as suggesting that ChatGPT has a memory beyond the individual chat session.
It does not. It resets to a completely clean state every time you start a new chat with it. I think it's important to help people understand that.
