I use GPT4 many times a day. Instead of Googling for an answer, I will ask GPT4. Often, I will describe a function I want and have GPT4 write it. I use it to reformat strings, summarise text, and perform many other functions.

It is the most useful tool I have ever used as a programmer. It's absolutely not a "hype train".

I’ve used ChatGPT to give me script templates, write a README in markdown (it even came up with appropriate build commands), write an annual performance report, and answer questions on topics from FAA regulations to Kubernetes. Copilot does a pretty good job as a “junior engineer” to hammer out first drafts for me.

I’m sure there’s a good deal of over-promising, overexuberant salesmen trying to make a quick buck from it too a la crypto, but the technology is absolutely useful and providing real value as-is.

Copilot?

I’m paying the $10 a month and I hate subscriptions.

I use it as a Google search and text summarizer. So far seems to be the only truly useful thing to me. So I imagine services for that will appear. Maybe Google itself will incorporate it to stay relevant.

Depends what you mean by AI. If you mean machine learning then lots of things.

…unlocks phone using face and then asks it to translate something to French…

One application I can see is games, ChatGPT in games would be awesome

I personally find ChatGPT extremely useful for coding.

Advertising.

This question is in poor faith.
