I find it useful to handle things like creating diagrams and describing architecture, since I have some trouble converting what’s in my head to diagrams on paper. I can verify if the output matches my description of the requirements and make any surgical changes to the UML by hand.

I don’t use it for programming though, and I do worry about otherwise talented engineers using it as a crutch. There has been more than one occasion in code review where an answer to one of my comments was “well, this is what copilot said…,” which I take a pretty dim view of. In that sense it’s like the early 2000s when people started thoughtlessly deferring their intelligence to sat nav.
