I think it can be useful. I have used it myself, even before chatgpt was there and it was just gpt 3. For example I take a picture, OCR it and then look for mistakes with gpt because it’s better than a spell check. I’ve used it to write code in a language I wasn’t familiar with and having seen the names of the commands needed I could fix it to do what I wanted. I’ve also used it for some inspiration, which I could also have done with an online search. The concept just blew up and people were overstating what it can do, but I think now a lot of people know the limitations.
