    I sometimes use AI as a proofreader. Asking if the text is well structured and how I can improve it. I prefer to rework it by myself, but it’s nice to be able to get a feedback on a report you are writing before sending it.

    But my main use is to ask « common sense » things or fill my lack of basic knowledge. For example, I was struggling for buying some honey at a store because they were 3 kinds of honey and I had no way to know which one to buy (it was a bigger a store than the one I usually go to). I had a short conversation with an AI to determine which one was the best for me. It calmed me down and helped me to make the right choice (this is the kind of situation that makes me very anxious).

    It’s also very good to learn or understand foreign language expressions. English is not my native language, so it’s nice to be able to ask an AI about a joke characters are telling in a RPG when the game has not been translated.

    I think the next step for me will be to give an AI the ebook I am reading, and ask it questions about things I forgot or did not understand correctly while reading it (I don’t want a summary of the whole book because I don’t want to be spoiled).

    I think it’s a very useful tool, and I believe it could make a big difference for autistic people as well in some cases.
