Just out of curiosity. I have no moral stance on it, if a tool works for you I'm definitely not judging anyone for using it. Do whatever you can to get your work done!

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 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've used it for writing job descriptions. The final output is different after I've tweaked it but it's much easier than starting with a blank page.

We use it liberally but we are encouraged to do so.

I use it as a software Developer but I’m not hiding it from my boss.

Mainly I use it generate me mock data, but also for helping me understand code blocks or if I want to sort some complex data and my head is baffled.

People seem to miss the point in that if I don’t understand software development then ChatGPT is of little help. With the sorting of data, it can give me 90% complete solutions but you have to know what you’re doing to debug it.

As long as it passes tests and CI, people will commit and push almost any kind of garbage it produces. I do the code reviews, and it turned into a circus after LLMs. People are extremely reluctant to fix "their code", because they don't understand it, and they also don't want to go back to basics and learn the fundamentals they were trying to skip by using the LLM in the first place.

I can't see anything positive about this development.

I work in sales. Cat-I-Farted is about as smooth and persuasive as a middleschooler.

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've used it in a few occasions, mostly to find better terms and adjusting the tone for my emails. Also finding what acronym stands for and understanding technical issues. Asking to explain like I'm a 5 yo or beginner saved me some time from doing long researches on google.
