I asked it to interview me with a series of 5-10 questions in an effort to identify what new subjects I might like to learn or hobbies to enjoy. That worked pretty well.

I also asked some vague medical questions, the sort that aren't urgent enough to go to the doctor over, and that was helpful too and led to me making a couple of choices that actually improved my quality of life.

I find it really helpful as a creative writing assistant, too, not to generate text, but side research questions. That's not so unique though.

Got that prompt for the hobby one?
It wasn't anything special, I'm sure I just said something like the above. I remember making it clear that I didn't want it to ask the questions all at once; and that I wanted its followup questions to be based off of my answers along the way.
