Is the word "utile" still used nowadays?

I know that the word 'utile' exists, but I was wondering if it is still used informally in conversations.

I know it exists, and from my knowledge of French I know what it means. I've never known anyone to use it in English.

I was wondering, because I know people still use 'futile', which is the opposite of 'utile', that means "useful".

I've always known it was a word, I was just afraid it was considered a little archaic, so it would be strange to use in public.
