GMs, how have you used ChatGPT to help run your games?

This community is for meaningful discussions of tabletop/pen & paper RPGs
Rules (wip):
I use it to plan my campaign. I cannot talk about the Contents and secrets with my players, my girlfriend foesvnt really care so I have ChatGPT just to spitball ideas with.
It does say dumb shit sometimes, or gives very generic ideas, but it serves to bounce your thoughts off of something and improve and improve. It's like talking to someone about your next session
Exactly this. This is the main, best usage of it that I've found. My wife is one of my players, so if I want to plan a surprise, I need to bounce ideas off ChatGPT.
When it says dumb shit, you just give it a better idea instead. Honestly, having a bad idea on the table often makes it easier to come up with something good because your brain can more immediately go "not like that, like this" than it can just come up with an idea out of nowhere, y'know?
