Note: I prefer to use it for non code tasks or very basic boilerplate.

My real use cases for AI are:

• Questions Creator. Instead of use AI to give me answers, it gives me questions.
• Enhance my quality question creational process.
• Play characters from real life or fictional, to obtain their point of view.
• Enhance my empathical qualities by sharing me different points of view about a situation.
• PDFs Analyzer.
