I do this, but it’s because I am evangelizing proper use of the tool to developers who don’t always understand what it can and can’t do.

Recently I used o3 to plan a refactoring related to upgrading the version of C++ we are using in our product. It pointed out that we could use a tool built in to VS 2022 to make a particular change automatically based on compilation output. I was not familiar with this tool and neither were the other developers on the team.

I did confirm its accuracy myself, but also made sure to credit the model as the source of information about the tool.
