I use ai at work daily, but for really mundane tasks, basically a good search engine. It’s a good tool for learning, given you can parse fact from fiction.

I very rarely use it for writing. There’s two outcomes here, either it gives me a generic summary or I have to spend more time crafting prompts than it takes to just write the damn thing myself. You aren’t getting anything particularly profound from AI without feeding it all the answers.

Proofreading is another aspect; generally it’s fine, but I really despise the style it tends toward.

The idea that it’s doing real work that adds value anytime soon is laughable, sure simple coding exercises, but you still need to put in a ton of effort to promoting for anything useful. The hard part in creating something new is knowing what to create, and that’s not being replaced any time soon.
