I think "get it to write functional code most of the time" severely discounts the value of the code produced by ChatGPT. Knowing zero Swift (but being an SDE), I was able to build an audio plugin for Logic Pro X in a day, by leveraging ChatGPT. I'd previously tried this twice, and gave up because of the learning curve and my lack of free time. It's the most insane 0% to 80% tool I've ever seen.
