I've actually had decent luck with it for big-picture questions. Like, "How do I go about accomplishing this, with this, given this?" It might list a few options, so when before I didn't have a clue, now I have some ideas and can ask/Google the questions that I didn't even know I didn't have before. Of course, you've gotta use due diligence, don't just take its word for it.

Sometimes even when I don't get a good answer from it, it still breaks me out of the mind block I'm in, so I guess it's helped me indirectly that way.
