How to use AI? (lemmy.world)

Hey all, until now I'm being super reluctant about using any AI tool. On top of all the privacy issues it obviously comes with it (I can't believe there are people talking to ChatGpt and literally teaching them how to impersonated!), I have a feeling that it only does jobs that you are capable of doing with other tools, but since it looks like a person and not a computer, people start to fantasize that it will do everything they don't know or don't want to do it and become numb and stupid. But, maybe there are some uses for it and at my office we will soon have access to Claude, so I want to explore it and check for myself. My question is what precautions should I take and what limits should I put on my usage? I thought about creating a new email account just for signing up, but obviously that's nothing nowadays.

I've used Copilot for ingesting documentation and iterative planning for daily KT under time pressure (operational continuity needed to avoid risk to human life) and constantly changing fact base. The result is definitely way beyond my own capacity, under above circumstances. So definitely worth it, even if the token burn was in the thousands (I don't think it was, and it's possible to reduce it by factor 2-4x without quality loss). YMMV.
