A friend of mine is mandatory on many meetings that don't event touch his area of expertise. He uses AI to transcribe the meetings, other AI to identify if there was any chance he was tasked to do something and turn it into Jira tickets.
Enormous amounts of employee time not burned. And huge peace of mind saved.

Every time some profoundly doof website makes the decision that "copying our content is bad" and mangle with the text selection feature, I'm forced to make a screenshot and extract the text somehow. For most cases #OSX #PreviewApp works well. For everything else...

Hobby article images are a perfect use of AI:
- There will never be a ready-to-use illustration/photo depicting exactly what I want and I can't change-that-one-thing.
- Fair usage with correct attribution is still a huge trap & work if one does not want to be a bad actor.
- Personally I also find the "AI aesthetics" quite charming. For now.

Copying recipes from online recipe sites. Yep. Sadly it's possible to mingle with selection & clipboard-ing to prevent users from copying content.
Luckily the OSX preview can very nicely copy text from images.

Illustration images for community posters. I have a clear vision in my head of something that is very specific and very quirky. I have zero budget to commission the work, next to zero talent to make it myself, and enough creative determination to make it the way I want.

When you want to work on the go. I literally just closed my laptop, moved to train and opened my ChatGPT session on phone.
Sure, some will try to argue that mobile versions of apps do exist, buuuut... Have you tried using excel from your smartphone?
In contrast - the chat interface works pretty much the same irrespective to which device I'm using.

Coding. Yep, I mean it. I can't care less about memorising clever language hacks nor algorithms/structures details.
For me code is only a vehicle that gets me to the goal. As long as I can describe the goal and understand the provided vehicle & it's tradeoffs I'm being more productive & happy.
And yes, contrary to the popular narrative of those that would "never touch AI", but somehow still know "it sucks": It works. Pretty well all things considered.

Episode 472: Should my junior dev use AI?
Yes, yes they should. Learning can happen in multitude ways and it's not uncommon for (not only juniors) to get stuck for hours and days on end on things that are solvable by second pair of eyes. If it needs to be robotic ones, so be it.
