> the author had ChatGPT write a script to automatically handle payments processing, specifically for chargebacks

Feels like a mischaracterization tbh.

He had it make a script to go through and accept the chargebacks for these accounts, not handle payment processing or do anything to the chargebacks other than click "accept" essentially.

> And based on the context in the article, the author sounds like they lacked the technical skill to write or validate these scripts themselves.

I also don't really get where you're getting that from.

The author even said

> I reviewed all of the scripts carefully, and also never shared any customer data, IDs, or API keys. I think I saved at least a couple hours compared to hand-rolling these tools manually!
