Ok, inquiring minds want to know. I literally only just learned "what this is" recently when reading Richard Osman's "We Solve Murders". I had heard of the concept of AI helping you write things but hadn't actually heard a formal term other than just "AI". So, at work yesterday my boss was telling me he used ChatGPT to write his annual personal development plan. I wasn't sure how I felt about that when he suggested I use it next year. Tell me: have you used ChatGPT, if yes - for what? Or are you like me and you think that if you download this to your phone it's going to take over and analyze your entire personality? lol Another co-worker of mine said he could tell my age (he's older than me, so it's ok ha!) because I see most technology as "out to get me". hahahahha
I have used ChatGPT for translations, to create texts. And I have also had comments created for layouts for fun. That was cool and worked well. I can magine that AI will collect data and that we will become more and more “transparent”.
I use it here and there to help me clean up emails when I’m looking at potential bids. It helps me use the right language for the job I want done. I do use co-pilot (free version has daily limit). I like to use it to help me scour the internet for info so I don’t have to watch as many YouTube videos or it narrows my focus. It allows me to build on my prior question. Also use co-pilot as a reference point when kids don’t believe me. Like cost of living, cost to live on own etc. kids are then like ok, maybe my parents aren’t being so dramatic.

I use ChatGPT at work everyday, like Esther, it helps clean up my emails to others, especially after the 18th time answering the same questions to the same person.....rofl and my patience is running thin
Perplexity is better than ChatGPT IMHO. DH and I were rolling on the floor laughing at the bios Chat came up with for us. It'll just say whatever 'sounds best'. Also I dislike the way CPT uses language - somehow manages to be both bland and overly 'flowery'.
I'm not allowed to use it for work because of privacy/security concerns but DH is a law professor and he now allows his students to use ChatGPT to write their papers as long as they disclose how they used it and they are responsible to make sure that it isn't hallucinating (making stuff up as it is known to do). The thinking is that all lawyers will be using this in a matter of a few years - most are using it now - and students need to learn how to use it appropriately.
I've never used it but I saw a demo of it at a genealogy society meeting last year. The presenter was a 7th grade math teacher (and loves tech, now in a tech position in the school system). She showed us how she has used it for lessons in her classroom. One of her prompts was math lessons about solar eclipse (we were in 100% totality area and most teachers were giving small assignments about the eclipse to the students). It had a couple that were on the right level but most were too complex for 7th graders. But her main presentation was to right a story about a person from prompts about their life. She gave us all a sheet to answer about 10 prompts then asked for a volunteer to share theirs. One girl did and it wrote her history. The presenter showed us how to edit it and make it sound more like it was actually written by the girl. The original story was funny and it got a couple facts wrong. Several edits were made to get that portion correct (it kept saying she was born in the town she grew up in but she was born in a hospital about 25 miles away from there). I saw where it could be useful but I didn't run home and try it out.
I have not, and I think I'm a little skeptical too. I do see the AI generated review summaries now on Amazon and find those helpful... but I'm not downloading something to devices. Maybe if it was a website I'd feel better about trying it.
I use chat gpt on my desktop no download. Now co pilot I do use the app until it tells me I’ve exhausted its daily limit. The gentleman is always so nice and likes to interject his active listening skills. lol. Little bizarre too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I don't mind them in my everyday. But sometimes at work I need to explain something or address concerns in a "more" appropriate manner. I have a tendency to be blunt and to the point and that doesn't always go over well in email. rofl
I remember those days.. LOL... many a time my "NYer" in me would come out, and yup I was not "Miss Run-On in business... I just re read and re read before I hit send!
I haven't used ChatGPT although I've seen it recommended in plenty of places, like my ADHD groups, for things like meal planning, "life hacking" sort of things. But then I also read that AI is becoming detrimental to climate change with its incredibly large carbon footprint so I kinda didn't want to even bother starting to use it since I've gone my whole life without it.
I haven't used Chatgpt but it seems like most of my google searches now come back with ai generated suggestions at the top.
Yes, never used it myself though I've seen the same thing as you in regards to Google searches. Not using it might make me "old" & out of touch but at this point I haven't felt the need to use it or explore it
On a personal level I use it for all kinds of info. For example, when I was helping my middle son decide what schools he'd be interested in playing college baseball, I used it to gather information for all of the programs that met certain criteria. It also gave me coaches info, etc. Super helpful in the sense it saved me hours of looking it up on my own. I've tried it for meal planning, research, wording/rewording, and on and on ... At work, I'll use it to put data into a certain format, or analyze it based on criteria I give it, etc. I also use it for competitive intelligence, to summarize meeting notes, summarize info for performance reviews, etc. I lead an organization of strategists and project managers and have team members who are dedicated to partnering with our data scientists to identify and prioritize generative AI use cases that we are operationalizing across our organization (we use a proprietary version and continuously groom our models). I was able to get everyone in my org access to our version of GPT and some also have Co-pilot Pro licenses.
