I use it a lot to ask dumb simple questions. I've been delving into a new tech stack at work, and I'm already familiar with the concepts, but I just don't know how to do those things in this specific tech stack. AI saves me a lot of time digging through documentation and SEO spam. It often gets me to the answer faster.
However, I usually only use it to ask dumb simple questions. When it comes to anything more complex or obscure, it often falls flat on its face and either hallucinates or misunderstands the question. Then I'll do an old fashioned web search and find a clear cut answer in stack overflow.
My experience has been AI is very unreliable right now and you simply can't trust what it tells you. So I only use it in very limited ways.
