Is it 'outright false'? The code it creates is can only as good as the prompt. It's just GIGO all over again...
I got it to write exactly the test I wanted for a snippet of code on the third prompt attempt by specifying exactly the two specific technologies I wanted it to use and one keyword that describes an idiom that I needed. It would have been slightly faster than doing it myself.
Technically it was test code, not production code, but had it been my code rather than just some code I was looking at I would have committed the test code it wrote to the repo with zero reservations.
