Thank you for the insight!

I bought a Lenovo Yoga late last year when Best Buy had them on sale, and I like it a lot. The one I got has an Ultra 7 chip and it lists for about a grand, but it was greatly reduced for the pre-holiday sales. I think I paid something around $600. If you increase your budget a bit you can get some nice features, a backlit keyboard, bigger SSD, and so on.

So engineers can now automate the writing of basic code, and potentially more complex tasks, by using GPT-3.

I am not embracing the notion that you shouldn't have to code to do data science. However, I think coding may soon be much less of a competitive advantage.
