Yes, I’ve used them. And for some things they are okay (for example, their responses on programming questions can be hit or miss).

But given that there have been active disinformation campaigns and election meddling attempts (with several countries being both the victims and the perpetrators of this), I’m not convinced they will be reliable on some topics. Not least because the companies behind them have been slow to take the topic of information fidelity seriously.
