Yes! My role is not programming. But often I write code in Google Apps Scripts or Python to automate processes.

An example would be like when one of our salespeople closes a deal they complete a task in our sales software that triggers a bunch of Asana tasks for the onboarding team and builds the Google Drive folders and documents we'll eventually need for that client.

I used to have to figure out the code for things like that "by hand" and I was occasionally limited by my technical ability.

But what I've found now is that I'm limited by my knowledge of our business. If I can explain it to ChatGPT, I can get working code in minutes for things that used to take hours.

And I'm trying things now that end up taking hours that I wouldn't have even tried before because I saw them as "too hard" for me.

I honestly don't even read the code it generates. I have ChatGPT generate own log files that I feed back into it for debugging or analysis when anything breaks.
