I have found it to be most useful if you can word your query in terms of providing an example and then maybe adding a few criteria in the next few queries. Then it can come up with something that is more helpful than Google. But the downside is, if you ask it something more obscure, sometimes you need to go at it from different angles and on each try it can just lie to you and give you a solution that doesn't work. I would say it tends to help a bit more than it hurts though. The key is to just know when it is lying to you and then try something else.

In the nineties they were telling kids that IT was safe to go into if you wanted a good career. There was nothing about "downs" back then. They said you would be in demand all your working life. But then the government made it easy to bring in foreign workers who would work for less or companies just went without workers rather than paying more to fill the gaps and it didn't turn out as good as expected.
