Just out of curiosity. I have no moral stance on it, if a tool works for you I'm definitely not judging anyone for using it. Do whatever you can to get your work done!

Some of my co-workers use it, and it's fairly obvious, usually because they are putting out even more inaccurate info than normal.

Not because their grammar and phrasing improved suddenly?

They mainly use it for code and scripts.

Urgh one of my coworkers (technically client, but work closely alongside) clearly uses it for every single email he sends, and it's nauseating. He's crass and very poorly spoken in person, yet overnight all his email correspondence is suddenly robotic and unnecessarily flowery. I use it regularly myself, for fast building of Excel formulas and so forth, but please, don't dump every email into it.
