re: Anyone Found a Productive Use for ChatGPT?

Most of my uses have been for coding and Excel formulas. It's pretty good at that but far from perfect.

As an initial test I asked it to improve some website text.

It seemed to make everything read like a Buzzfeed headline.

I've found with these language AIs that you need to treat them as writers that need editors. Look at it's first response as a rough draft and give them notes on what and how to change things. And sometimes it just falls short even after multiple revisions, but it is often a source of good ideas for you to work with. It is a tool to help a person do a thing. It is not a tool to replace a person, yet.

It also has been shown to help the low performing employees be more productive, but it's not as helpful for the high performing employees. If you're asking it to do something you do everyday and are quite good at, you probably will not be impressed. But for tasks you don't do as often or maybe aren't as proficient in, it can probably help.
