Anyone used it for something?

It is usually used for coding assignments, I think. Or just for casual purposes. In my opinion, not much use.

I have tried it on some of the writing assignments I have received from clients (after I made the delivery).

It in no way matches the quality. It's probe to errors, it gets stuck in generic phrases and cannot actually make any decisions. 

I am not worried.

I've used it messing around to write dirty and offensive jokes and short stories it's pretty funny

It basically has all of the internet as of some time in 2021. It knew specific information about a store closing in my home town from 2020. I was trying to find the information on Google but chatgpt got straight to the answer. It is way better than a Google search

Has anyone tried to 'jailbreak' ChatGPT to get around their filters? Pretty interesting when you give it a long prompt that forces it to go outside of it's own boundaries.

It's capable of lying now, kinda makes me wonder how soon it could play torn without getting caught, and if it could lie its way out if it did get flagged.

I utilize the API in my own software and it's actually pretty insane you guys have no idea how much this changes the world.

On Torn? Highly doubt it.

Personally? I'm a DM for a small D&D group and it's a great tool for generating ideas, encounters, loot, and so on. Nothing super complex, but it gives me a solid footing.

I couldn't think of an acceptable way to tell my friend I can't make her wedding because I had to work so asked chatgpt. I used the reply almost word for word.

I've used it a handful of times as a SOC analyst. ChatGPT is great at getting answers fast, but it's even better at reading code.

I can throw in portions of obfuscated malicious scripts and chatGPT helps me decode and translate the payloads.

Sure I have other tools and means of trying to unobfuscate code, but ChatGPT can do it a hell of a lot faster than I can.

Going more off the coding aspect, chatGPT also helps me write Splunk and Curl queries/scripts... which again, are things I can do, but chatGPT does it infinitely faster.

Lastly, the way you ask questions can completely change the way answers are given. So when I have to go to the big wigs who don't know a thing about Cybersecurity,  I can have ChatGPT explain complex ideas using small, friendly words.

In the right hands, ChatGPT can be a very useful tool.

It’s useful (for me) for simple code. I forgotten everything I learnt 40 years ago so it’s great for pointing me in the right direction. 


I can narrow down Code examples rather than general ways of doing things so it’s quicker than googling often than not.

It’s so good! Written me good cover letters for job applications. I do have to add to it to sound now “human”

Search engines like Google can give you a wide range of information from thousands if not millions of results which is so confusing and time wasting

I have.. I've used it to speed up programming, and to develop lesson plans

I just used it to write up a reference letter

"Not much use". That is absurd. It is an excellent tool to use along side a great many number of tasks. Trying to brainstorm ideas for a given topic? Ask ChatGPT. Looking for movie recommendations based off of other movies? Ask ChatGPT. Trying to figure out what to make for dinner with the ingredients you have? Ask ChatGPT. Studying a particular topic? Ask ChatGPT. Need to write copy? Ask ChatGPT. Need to generate topics for articles? Ask ChatGPT. Need to generate outlines for said articles? Ask ChatGPT. 

ChatGPT is like the best of google combined with the best of reddit. Where before I would have gone to google or posted a thread on reddit, I will now just ask ChatGPT. 

Of course, for any piece of information you receive from ChatGPT, it is good to verify, as it does have some limitations
