Have you used so-called "AI" for actually productive work ? (sh.itjust.works)

With copilot included in Professional-grade Office 365 and some politician claiming that their government should use AI to be more efficient. I am curious on whether some of you did use "AI" to get some productive things done. Or if it's still mostly a toy for you.

I use it to outline and layout big documents and reports. I give it a list of tasks I did and it writes the long-form text in the approved style. I use it anytime I need to translate my thoughts or process into corporate jargon. And occasionally my bosses ask me for a report on something totally unrelated to what we are doing and I'll ask GPT to do the first pass on the topic and then come I'll back and re-write it iteratively as I figure out what part of the topic the boss really cares about.
