I find it useful for answering technical / programming questions. It is completely unhelpful maybe 20% of the time, explicitly incorrect in a minor detail half the time, and imperfect 80% of the time.
However, it gets me an answer to my question in seconds almost always faster than searching. Traditional googling will have me wading through forum posts and bad documentation which almost always takes much longer and sometimes completely fails or takes hours to get the right answer.
Fast occasionally wrong answers are way more helpful. I’m quickly switching to first asking chatgpt for an answer and only switching to google or official docs when the answer doesn’t seem to work.
I absolutely don’t “trust” it, but I don’t have to. I try its suggestions and if they don’t work move on to other sources of information.
