A little bit. I write for a living and code in support of my writing. It saves me from reading API docs for the sort of code I'm well able to verify. I also use it to test different ways to phrase something. Recently I used it to turn a diagram I doodle into Django code. It removes a bit of friction and I appreciate that.

I only use the free tier of ChatGPT. It's fine and I'm starting to get a good feeling for its limitations.

I also use Deepl a lot for longer, tedious German texts. I also use Deepl Write to check my writing, especially in German since I am not fluent. I love writing unimportant transactional emails in English and letting Deepl handle the translation. That saves me a lot of time.
