I use it mostly to assist my fiction writing. Helping me brainstorm, critique, work through stuck-points, and proofread. The other day I was a bit stuck on the main conflict of a story I'm writing and talked through it with ChatGPT via voice on my phone on a bus. Then I had it output a revised outline of the story with the changes we just discussed, and give me word count targets for each section. I also generate character illustrations in the same thread. I've uploaded my existing books in the same series to this custom GPT, so it has background information on the series tone, characters, etc.
For programming tasks, I use GPT-3.5 and 4 indirectly via Cursor and GitHub copilot (both Chat and inline suggestion features). It's hit and miss for this, but useful _enough_ to be worth it as long as I'm prepared to be vigilant and do a lot of handholding. It's more like it gets me a decent starting point generates decent comments and function signatures that save me some typing.
