Receipts

This one, well, doesn't seem great. As TechCrunch reported, users online have been using ChatGPT to create real-looking receipts.

Design ideas

This use case is certainly less harmful than fake receipts: ChatGPT could help you design your home. Tech journalist Kevin Roose posted an example. He took screenshots of a bunch of furniture and had ChatGPT compose those images into a room design. That could prove to be a helpful tool in designing your home — and saving you the trouble of buying a couch that won't look good.
