I love using it while programming but I almost never use it besides that. Not even sure what I would use it for besides that on a day to day basis.
Sometimes I use it for laughs. I usually use it as a search engine one steroids when I cant find the answer to a problem. Not having data past 2021 is a huge limiting factor for real producity though.
I know it's not popular, but Bing Chat works surprisingly well if you need a GPT response that can hit the Internet. It's not perfect but anytime I need current information I generally use it and it's worked pretty well for me!
I also use it for programming and today is the first day that I experienced the degradation that everyone has been talking about. It was spitting out the same code over and over, saying it was changing it, and then it slowed to a crawl and barely responded. Most of its answers were wrong and unhelpful. I have really enjoyed using it instead of stackoverflow for a few months now, so I hope this isn't something that's going to continue.
As for other uses, my wife and I used it to find a movie to watch a few days ago. We described the type of movie we wanted to see and asked it to recommend 10. We picked one and it was exactly what we wanted to watch. That was really neat.
I used to to write a resume and cover letter for me, which I then punched up. I figure that since companies are using AI to review resumes, I should use one to write one.
Recently, I used it for book/Author recommendations. At first I also used it for coding, but now I just ask it to explain concepts to me (what's the difference between... / what are some ways to approach...)
Basically how non-tech people thought search engines worked at the beginning of this century.
When Im feeling blue I ask it to say nice things about me.
I write a lot of emails for work, but I'm not the most eloquent writer, so I get wordy.
I sometimes feed my email into chatgpt and ask it rewrite it to be more concise, but remain in a friendly but professional tone. Boom, done.
