US Forest Service: 'hi chatgpt, here are three excel files showing the last three years of tree plantings we've done by plot and by species. Here's a fourth file in PDF format of our plot map.

I use it for stuff like this all the time in a non-government job. 100% doable without AI but takes an order of magnitude as much time. No hyperbole. People here talking about security risks are smart to think things through, but overestimate the sensitivity of most government work. I don't want the CIA using chatgpt to analyze and format lists of all our spies in China, but for the other 2.19m federal workers it's probably less of a huge deal.
