A certain archduke comes to mind.

The cost to maintain the servers to send extremely small packets of data to instruct the car for the entire fleet of cars they sold could be less than $100/m.

I can absolutely see it getting useful for a pro. It's already a better version of IDE templates. If you have to write boilerplate code this can already do that. It's a huge time saver for the things you'd have to go look up to remember how to do and piece together yourself.

Example: today I wanted a quick way to serve my current working directory over HTTP so I could do some quick web work. I asked ChatGPT to write me a bash function I could stick in my profile to do this, and I told it to pick a random unused port. That would have taken me much longer had I went to lookup how to do that all. The only hint I gave it was to use the Python builtin module for serving http.

Look up Vertex. They have stem cell derived beta cells they're looking to put in a pouch to avoid immune response, but AFAIK the production of the beta cells is a solved problem. They implanted those cells in someone and he's seemingly cured.

The issue is that cure currently comes with life long immunosuppressants.
