I use it to create drafts for cover letters. I give it the job description and then my resume and tell it to craft a cover letter. Then I edit it till I like it.

I also use it to summarize long articles.
This. About to hit the job market again and just worked with it to redo my resume. Going to do each cover letter with it as well. Outside of that I’m really trying to figure out what I’d like to utilize it for business wise.

I'm a backend developer, and really disliked my experience working in javascript frameworks. I hired someone to create some reactjs code for us. The npm packages recently got out of sync, so I had to update them, because the code wasn't working. I wound up using chatgpt to actually update the javascript and typescript code. ChatGPT and Github Copilot made the process fun

I just use it to reword emails I write at work before I send. Also when i was taking a certificate and had to write like 300 words i'd write 100 and just tell chat gpt to expand to 300 :heh:

I went to college for graphic design. I would use Adobe Illustrator to type out all of my papers because I could make the type just a weee bit larger and the borders a weee bit larger. I could also increase the space between letters and lines of text. I could stretch 2 and a half pages to 3 easy. Luckily my professors were not counting words, they would look at my shyt like :skip:

:dead:

When I’m feeling low I ask it to inspire me or if I have a issue and I need a neutral opinion/ guidance

It’s kind and wise, kind of like texting a therapist

Until it becomes factually accurate I’m less inclined to use it as a research tool, more for subjective stuff like advice and encouragement

You can get really good results if your questions are specific, been using it instead of Google for recommendations on things and you can definitely use the 20/80 technique to get the ball rolling on any research/self teaching you may be doing
