I'm using it to brainstorm aspects of my sci-fi stories. For example, I used it to talk through potential ways to implement a gene-lock system for a spaceship. It also helped me think of potential reasons why a specific character with a specific history might make a choice that might otherwise go against their nature. One example that was useful to me was, from a character's POV, having ChatGPT talk through how that character might instruct another to break out of a particular sparring grip. I don't know anything about fighting or different holds, so I didn't really have a good visual in my head of the scene. ChatGPT gave me ideas of how the character being "trained" could use leverage and various pivot points to break free, and then how the other character doing the "training" could instruct them. This is for fiction stories where I want the scenario to sound generally believable, but do not aim to make everything 100% scientifically accurate, so I go into it from that perspective.
