I actually found a positive use today, I needed a corporate bullshit intro to a document as to why the company is great and how we will apply the content. In under a second I had perfect corporate bullshit that to be honest sounded good. If I was to do this myself it would have taken ages as I don't speak corporate bullshit, and I'm really poor a generating it. Thanks ai ๐Ÿ‘
