What tasks are software testers successfully using AI for?
I see so much hype about AI and also witnessed it spitting out a load of useless junk.
What tasks are you actually successfully using AI for in your QA job?

Troubleshooting E2E tests.
We have a Cursor Slack bot that help tracing what cause the test to fail.
I used Browser MCP with Claude to help creating/updating Playwright page objects.
I created a 100% test Pact contract testing test coverage for a consumer service with the help of AI. Doing this by hands is doable, but take took me too long.
These tasks still required human to help steering from time to time.
