I think a lot of the benefit of ChatGPT is in more or less mundane questions like "what is the difference between capacitive reactance and resistance in general?" Answer: "Capacitive reactance and resistance are two distinct electrical quantities that are related to the flow of electrical current in a circuit. Capacitive reactance is a measure of the opposition to the flow of AC current in a capacitor, while resistance is a measure of the opposition to the flow of both AC and DC current in an electrical conductor."
You can, yes, get the answer using Google -- in a few minutes you'll reach this conclusion. So, a lot of the use is not really for flashy scenarios, but bread and butter information. I also asked it if I had enough time to complete my manifesto in five minutes as my bus was leaving. It said you don't have enough time! I thought was very interesting in exhibiting common sense.
