Yes when I plop down into an unfamiliar codebase and ask for a synopsis and introduction.

When I ask for diagnostic of an error I don’t understand.

When I ask for a first draft of documentation (way easier to edit than generate from nothing)

When I ask how to do something obscure buried deep in a configuration setting

Absolutely not. In theory I've probably fallen for it once or twice before, but the majority of AI written articles have been so poorly done that it's taken me out of the story immediately. Maybe I'd be fine with it for a CV/resume, but that's mostly because the actual text matters a lot less than the bullet points, so questionable writing is basically irrelevant.
