Used in small doses to generate text with some degree of precision is helpful. I do find it to be a good way to cut out boring email writing. But I would recommend it more as a text generation tool than a fact generation tool. With the right expectations and work flow it fits right in. And no I don't consider it plagiarism if the client's demand is boring.

I tried it once or twice and it worked well. It's too stupid now to be worth the attempt. The amount of time spent fixing its mistakes has resulted in net zero time savings.
My boss pays for it! I don't use it that much, but it's pretty useful from time to time instead of going through a bunch of unrelated Google results.
I absolutely kept it from my boss. The she told me in a 1:1 how extensively she uses it. I was like, hey I can help! Definitely haven’t told my VP though. Also then they blocked it, so I have to either use it in my iPad, or stick to Bard and BingAI on the laptop.
As a manager, it does a great job of writing a bunch of ideas around a subject I need to explain that is not proprietary info. Turned writing a proposal that would have taken me hours to layout and format into just a few seconds with mere minutes tweaking to get just right.
Proudly told my coworker about experiment with LLM to help with documentation we're pretty close from what we would need. I don't have yet the paygrade to do my own experiment on my work time but I am close enough to be able to start experimenting on my work time and tell my boss you see this is why I desserve that paygrade
I suffer from the curse of the blank page, so getting something on the page to edit and expand is a lifesaver for me. It is also useful to adjust tone, and do simple things like document functions. Easy to correct if wrong.
I don't have much use for confident-sounding nonsense.
Definately. ChatGPT for coding help, and learning new coding topics. And Gamma for presentations - if only for the nice formatting of content and stock imagery.
We use it liberally but we are encouraged to do so.
I run a board game store, so just for a chuckle I asked it about what's popular this year or what to order and kept getting the same answer about only having accurate data from 2021 and prior.
I’m a family doctor, so I haven’t yet. It’s not a validated tool to source medical information, and I can’t paste any patient identifiers into it, so even if I wanted its input it’s way faster to just use my standard medical resources.
Our EMR plans to do some testing later this year for generative AI in areas that don’t have to be medically validated like notes to patients. I will likely sign up to pilot it if that option is offered.
I use it for D&D, though, along with a mixture of other tools, random generators, and my own homebrew. My players are aware of this.
I tell everyone! I suggest my coworkers and bosses to do the same.
Why I should keep it as secret?
I use it and encourage my staff and other departments to use it.
I feel that we're at a horse vs tractor or human computer vs digital computer event. In the next 10+ years those who are AI ignorant will be under employed or unemployed. Get it now and learn to use it as a force multiplier just like tractors and digital computers were.
The arguments against AI eerily mirror the arguments against tractors and digital computers.
Yeah I use it, but only as a rubber duckie. I never put in code unless I understand what it's doing, and most of the time I'm just using it as a sounding board. Since it never returns the right code on the first try anyways haha
I work in sales. Cat-I-Farted is about as smooth and persuasive as a middleschooler.
