It’s usually just a slightly faster web search. When I try to have it do more, I end up spinning my wheels and then doing a web search.

I’ll sometimes have it help read really long error messages as well.

I got it to help me fix a reported security vulnerability, but it was a long road and I had to constantly work to keep it from going off the rails and adding insane amounts of complexity and extra code. It likely would have been faster for me to read up on the specific vulnerability, take a walk, and come back to my desk to write something up.
