I use it to summarize work notes.
My work often involves talking a lot of observation notes and I used to spend a lot of time sifting through them to make the actual summaries and analyses. Now AI basically does my first draft and I can even ask it to highlight examples of different things from my notes. It honestly saves me a lot of time and effort but also proves to me that on it's own, AI still isn't good enough to beat a real human expert, it's just WAY faster and gets me like 70~80% of the way there in seconds. I was at a conference just a few weeks back and found at least one other person in my field of work doing the same and a lot more people were looking to adopt it for this kind of use specifically after our discussions.
This practice is banned at our company and it is a fireable offence. We also do not allow for code to be shown or shared on Teams. If there is ANY confidential information or even proprietary internal subject matters in your notes, you are essentially feeding it to the AI to plagiarize.
Nothing that would be proprietary, I don't work in software or tech. And a simple find and replace all gets rid of any confidential or personal information before I paste it into any AI. Redacting and/or concealing confidential info has been a thing I've had to do way before AI
