It does plug a big hole in ChatGPT. ChatGPT math skills are mostly non existent (e.g. it can not factorize a medium size number), but it can easily generate python code to do almost all such things. There might be many more things ChatGPT can not do, but can generate python code to do. This brings it more in line with a normal human (not someone familiar with LLMs) expectations. If it can do a much broader set of things, the queries it can serve will benefit enormously.
