Helped: Producing non-trivial code and saving significant time.

Got in the way: Needs rigorous coaxing and sometimes hallucinates.

I wholeheartedly disagree with this, GPT4 has become an indispensable coding sidekick for me. Yes it needs rigorous coaxing and nudging, and sometimes it hallucinates, but I’ve also seen it produce great things that have saved me dozens or hundreds of hours of work this year. Including non-trivial code with far more than two if blocks.
