It can appear reasonably smart on the surface, but all it is is a stochastic parrot. It cannot reason with you about the code.

To best illustrate what I mean, watch this chess match[0] it's quite riveting.

Since it read millions of matches, it can predict a legal move most of the time, and even some good moves some of the time, but it cannot "understand" the rules of chess, and makes some hilariously illegal moves, especially if the match lasts longer.
