I use it to write my job application cover letters. Thats about it. It can’t do my previous job. It can’t figure out wiring single line drawings or plot them. I’m not worried about my intelligence.
Cover letters are a great use of AI because they are a pure formality whose content is valueless.
cover letters, meeting notes, some process documentation: the stuff that for some reason "needs" to be done, usually written by people who don't want to write it for people who don't want to read it. That's all perfect for GenAI.
