That's how I use it too. You try to search some topics on search engines nowadays, you get a lot of blog drivel with the same cliches all over and very little on the way of factual explanations. You ask ChatGPT and it gives you one to four paragraphs straight to the point. You can query it further and validate what it says with literature or more focused searches.

It feels like I'm getting massively subsidized by the AI hype tho. Even if I were to pay 20 dollars a month for that, it wouldn't come close to covering how much it cost to train and host it.
