This kind of thing is my main use, boilerplate stuff And for scripts that I don't care about -- e.g., if I need a quick bash script to do a once off task.

For harder problems, my experience is that it falls over, although I haven't been refining my LLM skills as much as some do. It seems that the bigger the project, the more it integrates with other things, the worse AI is. And moreover, for those tasks it's important for me or a human to do it because (a) we think about edge cases while we work through the problem intellectually, and (b) it gives us a deep understanding of the system.
