I've been using AI a lot. My question was mainly rhetorical, for people who think AI is useless.

I use it for a librarian. I still double check the info that it finds for me.

I'm impressed at how clearly it understands complex multi-part questions.

Some people use AI to help them with their work and do some work for them.

Google AI overview says:

"Approximately 30% of all public AI queries (like those directed at ChatGPT) are directly related to work and making tasks easier. The other 70% are used for personal tasks, entertainment, and general curiosity."
