I am trying to stay open-minded here.
As it is, I don’t see a usage that justify install a privacy nightmare on the system level, an app, or even a browser extension.
The only time I have been using any AI stuff lately is when Brave_Search/Copilot_on_Bing do a quick summary of the search results, and give me the link to the website. It don’t need to constantly see what I am doing for that.

I will start thinking outside the box going forward, but for my job this year, I was asked to write several company communications, which I never normally have to, and it wrote both for me almost perfectly. Took me about 5 minutes to edit them after and that was it. If I did this on my own, it easily could have been over an hour for each, I really hate that stuff.
I use the spoken voice function in ChatGPT while I am using my Meta Quest 2 VR headset. Specifically, I am using the VR app called Wander, which incorporates Google’s street view imagery to produce a 360° experience of street-level reality. As I wander through the virtual world, I interrogate ChatGPT about interesting landmarks, historical artifacts, and geographic features that I encounter. It’s like having a knowledgeable travel companion that occasionally makes everything up. It’s a blast.
With the announcement of GPT-4o, I’ve started playing with the current (old) voice feature. I hadn’t considered going off a virtual tour, though. Thanks for the idea, I’ll have to try it!
I don’t use any of it, I don’t really see a use case for it honestly. Feels like I’m missing out at times, but have no idea what I would even use it for.
Yeah, same. I’ve tried the chatbot LLMs, and like, I guess, it’s alright? But unless I prefer it to my default search engine, I’m just not really going to use it anyways. It’s not like I frequently juggle multiple search engines either…
Well as a search engine it’s very limited, try to think of it more as a text generator. It’s much more useful to create letters/documents, organize thoughts, create code etc.
Company communications mainly. I just put the bullet points in there and an example from the past, then say make these bullets sound like that.
Language learning.
Writing code or troubleshooting code.
Creating custom art for friends and family.
I’ve made a couple fun Discord bots for my friends, like a MtG card generator where you give a title and it creates a full card + art from that.
Other than that, lately I’ve been setting up some stuff on my home server, and it’s been great for working with various config files. (Of course, I wouldn’t trust this if I didn’t already generally know what I was doing to catch insecure recommendations.)
A few other things, but that’s the bulk of it.
I use chatgpt to help run the TTRPG I run every week. Primarily I use it for reference images of NPCs, but I’ve also generated battlemaps and stuff. I don’t usually use it to help with the writing, but it can be pretty helpful when coming up with names, or when you are in need of some inspiration for a particular session.
I use it for troubleshooting weird errors, explaining my point when I can’t communicate well, connecting dots. For example, finding common points that link myths and legends of an unfamiliar culture, to get starting points on what to read about. This would otherwise be hours of research sifting through unrelated stuff just to find some mention of sparrows or whathaveyou.
I’m excited for AI as a technology, but not for this. I was expecting to have one trained to parse system logs and stuff, to help people troubleshoot on-device using natural language. This thing will take screenshots every few seconds? What if it misses an error screen because you close it too fast? Can it still function on a BSOD? What about 2k and 4k monitors, which will produce much larger screenshots, paired with lower-capacity SSDs for cost reasons?
I could go on, but this is just boneheaded on every level that I can see.

Only for Teams meetings, to summarize and make minutes out of those.
Everything else I do manually.
I mostly use it for fun, others to generate an image and sometimes for help with coding or sth else similar
I’m helping some other people write school papers, so I use it as a jumping off point to create a draft outline. Just the main points, then go in an start writing off of that. I don’t really know much about the subjects I’m helping with, so rather than me investing hours of research, it helps summarize the important points quickly. It’s not great at writing essays though (or I’m using the wrong prompts), and it just spits out bullet points, so I basically have to convert those to “essay format” anyways.
Before that I struggled to see it as anything other than a novelty, but in this context it’s super useful.
