This is a very good question, and I'm sure you will get valuable answers. My take: - More efficient than search engines at obscure problems, like configuring an unix tool. Help that you can ask 'explain step by step' - It expands the range of topics you can read scientific papers in. You just ask it any topic or keyword you don't understand - Good summaries of text that is valuable, but not worth reading in detail - Translation - Code generation/bug fixing. I don't use it this way but other s will tell you whether/how much their coding life improved this way
