There are some strategies to get it to work better. It’s great if you tell it to create a function that accepts (input) and produced (output). For example I recently had it come up with some date formatters that saved me a lot of time, eg, transform a date from MM-YYYY to “X months ago”, stuff like that.

Obvs your use case may be wildly different, but I detest ms office for emails: 'received three days ago...Two days ago...'. Great, now i have to remember what today is and then do some mathematical gymnastics (i dont work m-f).
