Not at all. It often gives bad answers, or workarounds rather than working code. It's not useful to me if I have to fix its code, when I can do it more efficiently and quicker by my own.
With some hand-holding, it's quite decent at reading and documenting functions, which is what I use it for since I'm too lazy to document them myself. :P
It's been pretty hit or miss for creating new code from a prompt, but it's been really good-- in my experience-- if I give it some code I know is sloppy and ask it to refactor it, or if I want to slightly change the functionality of some given code.
