What was the moment AI actually clicked for you and stopped feeling like a gimmick

For a long time I used AI and thought yeah this is fine but nothing special. I could see why people liked it but it did not feel like the game changer everyone was saying it was. Then one day I used it to help me prepare for a really difficult conversation I was dreading at work. I explained the situation, asked it to help me think through different ways it could go, and roleplay some responses. That was the moment it clicked for me. It was not about getting answers — it was about thinking through something properly with a tool that never gets tired of the conversation. After that I started using it completely differently and honestly have not looked back. What was your moment? The thing that made it go from interesting to actually useful in your life? Would love to hear what it was for people because I think it is different for everyone.
