90%? You're an optimist.

The other 10% will simply bury the failure in a corporate reorganization.

In a few years? I would say more in a few months.
EDIT: I should have read the other answers before... someone already said weeks 
Here in Germany there is an article explaining how ChatGPT has wrongly "sentenced" a professor guilty of sexual harassment

ha, truth. Clearly I'm not thinking properly. In the never ending hunt for free code (meaning management need not staff an engineering department) I suspect the thought is I can get most of this written and then let kiddies debug it.
But there are two sides to the coin. If "AI" can write code, it can also generate bugs as fast. It should be entertaining.

That reminds me, years ago my boss asked why I
wanted a faster PC. I said so I could make errors in microseconds, where it took me milliseconds before!

They seem to underestimate how clever we bug writers are.

does ChatGPT program itself? Does it control the power to the server it runs on? Who's the boss?

Yesterday one of my clients came in because on his screen was a warning that his windows 10 was no longer going to get corruptdates and to go to windows 11.
He had no desire to do so, so I killt his automatic corruptdates and off he went.
Another guy just left with the same message but when I asked if he wanted this message to stop (he's probably close to 90) he said he didn't understand. So I just let him go having fixed his unrelated issue.
Here is comes kids.

When I went to use my ancient Win 8.1 piece of crap yesterday, Chrome said that it needed an update and then said that if I wanted further updates I'd have to go to Win 11.

That’s really terrible. Time to go to Linux on that piece of h/w.
Or,is it a MS Surface or something?
I run Ubuntu 22.04 on my main desktop and I remote to work Win10 PCs and everything works great.
I have a laptop with Win10 on it and I’m really considering putting Linux on it too if MS keeps on pushing like this.
there are only two apps that I need on Win10:
1. Atmel Studio - seems to only run on windows via Visual Studio
2. Steam - I have some windows games i would lose I guess
that’s it.

No, what's terrible is that he's using Windows 8.1.

Windows 8.1 is the last version that does not have enforced updates. I will not go to any more Windows versions, and will have to use only Linux when Windows 8.1 beomes unusable.

When was Windows 8.1 ever usable? I'm confused.

I have a dedicated Win10 VirtualBox image but I couldn’t get the video drivers right to be able to work with steam
Have you done it?
It was tricky for me and I gave up

No need.. my monster machine is not feasible for windows 11 
Have you nothing as installer for the drivers?
