GPT-4 generate real, working, code in many cases including non trivial ones.

It still requires an engineer to proofread and just generally to prompt the system correctly.

Yet, this is like having Magneto in the real world but people thinking it is some kind of tricks and still going through demolition firms... who then hire Magneto.

But as an engineer in the field, I won't complain.

It hallucinates as much as the previous version, but now it does it even more convincingly. Your Magneto secretly hires five drunken guys with a barrel of dynamite, tells them different adresses and instructs them to go nuts. They're drunk af so most of the time they do some random shit, sometimes something resembling what you want them to do, and then your Magneto turns to you and tells you that job is done, but you trust that he is a real superhero so you don't double check. He does the same even if you ask him to move your car or take care of your dog.
