> who is using ChatGPT and who is thinking for themselves.

You can do both. My son's using the chatbots as idea/synonym/high-level structure generators and general tidier-uppers. I'd be surprised if he's taking more than 10% of their suggestions verbatim, but it's great for rubber ducking.

I've found chatGPT to be great for writers block as it's very good at giving me examples of what not to write.
