The value of advice is largely estimated based on who gives it. If a client is hiring me, it seems clear to me that they're paying for mine.

For support tasks (like research or even supporting a writeup) I'm not ethically opposed to using LLMs. It's just that I try every couple of months and conclude it's not a net improvement. Your mileage may vary of course.

augmenting your advice with chatgpt shouldnt be difficult. You could simply bounce your ideas off chatgpt before meeting a client, that way your work has already been crosschecked, its not like it would be providing advice (your product) for you.
