Let me give you a simple example. I had to deal with a desynced subtitle file recently. I described the exact nature of the desync (in terms like "at point X1 the offset is Y1, and at X2 it is Y2") to GPT-4 and asked it to write me a Python script to fix this. It did require a couple tweaks to run, but when it did, it "just worked".

It's basically magic.
