Not the whole thing because it's longer than I remember.

But just consider how long it would have taken me to answer each of those questions just by googling and reading old forums and stack overflow posts.
Much like sitting next to someone with experience, a question that could take me hours to answer on the internet took me only seconds to answer by asking directly. GPT's responses are still long, so it's not pure conversational style, but the longer responses aren't wasted fluff. It's all relevant to what I asked.
Natural language as a way to query a knowledge base is enormously useful. Especially for something that requires update of existing knowledge as often as tech work.
Great post. I want to highlight your sentence above as a key point, for folks trying to come to grips with where and how to use the current generation of AI.
