What are people using AI groupchats or personal assistants for?

I’ve recently noticed a plethora of AI startups building around iMessage, group chats, and personal assistants.

I’m curious how useful people actually find these.

I’ve tried a few of them, and so far most of my experience has been just for fun, messing around, asking random questions, trying prompts with friends, etc. But I haven’t personally found a strong recurring use case yet. Most of my AI group chats end up dying after the initial excitement fades and I’ve tried using some of the AI chatbots but it did not really do anything.

For people who use these regularly, what are you actually doing in them? Are they helpful for work? Or do they mostly feel like a fun feature without much long-term utility? Or what could be something which could increase your convenience 2-10x, and will make these useful for you in daily usecases.

would love to hear why and what is working for you.
