I find it to be an excellent tool to help me write. Staring at a blank page is one of the hardest hurdles to overcome. By asking questions to chatGPT, I start organizing my thoughts about what I want to write, and it gives me instant words on the page to start manipulating. I am a subject matter expert on these topics and therefore screen what it gives me for correctness. It's surprisingly good, but it has hallucinated some things. But on the balance I find it very helpful.
