i often log in to ChatGPT to come up with a few examples of something.

e.g. the other day i looked for "technical words where their colloquial meaning has superseded their technical meaning" and it came up with acceptable examples like "bug" "hack" and a few others. i wasn't looking for those exact words in particular but i could have worked with it to come up with more examples from other domains easily.

These "tip of my tongue" requests work well, because GPT's weakness – making nonfactual stuff up – doesn't matter much, since as user you easily spot and ignore the false results.
