You need to be able to clearly describe the problem, and your expected solution, to get it to give quality answers. Type out instructions for it like you would type for a junior developer. It'll give you senior level code back, but it absolutely needs clear and constrained guidelines.
I mostly agree, I've had good results with similar prompts, but there's usually some mistake in there. It seems particularly bad with python imports, it just uses class A, B, C and imports class A, B and X and calls it a day.
Here are a few prompts that gave pretty good results:
For this one, it ignored the method I asked it to use -- but it was possibly correct in doing so, as it doesn't support arbitrary sizes (but I think that's only for the request?):
It should have told me why it ignored using TransactNamedPipe, but when I told it that it ignored my request it explained why.
