Funny. Every time someone points out how god awful AI is, someone else comes along to say "It's just a tool, and it's good if someone can use it properly." But nobody who uses it treats it like "just a tool." They think it's a workman they can claim the credit for, as if a hammer could replace the carpenter.

Plus, the only people good enough to fix the problems caused by this "tool" don't need to use it in the first place.

I do. I use it to tighten up some lazy code that I wrote, or to help me figure out a potential flaw in my logic, or to suggest a "better" way to do something if I'm not happy with what I originally wrote.

It's always small snippets of code and I don't always accept the answer. In fact, I'd say less than 50% of the time I get a result I can use as-is, but I will say that most of the time it gives me an idea or puts me on the right track.
