ChatGPT’s usefulness is pretty much a function of your prompt. I’ve had really in depth conversations that have taught me new ways of thinking about topics, but you really have to “think like ChatGPT” and give it enough to develop an idea fully if you want it to be interesting.

Not to say it isn’t capable of being dumb, but I’m amazed how cynical we are about a revolutionary tool that’s only been public for four months.
