There are a lot of things where being reliable isn’t as important (or it’s easier to be reliable).

For example, we are using it to do meeting summaries and it is remarkably good at it. In fact, in comparison to humans we did A/B testing with - usually better.

Another thing is new employee ramp. It is able to answer questions and guide new employees much faster than we’ve ever seen before.

Another thing I’ve started toying with it with, but have gotten incredible results so far is email prioritization. Basically letting me know which emails I should read most urgently.

Again, these were all things where the state of the art was basically useless 3 years ago.
