I quite like GitHub Copilot and use it a lot, but I find ChatGPT not all that useful.
For actual coding, it feels like describing what I want it to do is more complicated than doing it myself.
I can see some uses as a search engine, but I've had a lot of bad luck where it suggested code that was plain wrong or not working and often did not even compile, so most of the time, I'd rather look on GitHub, Stackoverflow or sites like that.
