re: Do you use AI/ChatGPT?

Never.
Mama says shatgeept is the debil.

Copilot

Every single day to come up with workout routines or other things for work. Also to jog my memory on anatomy and physiology for my stroke patients. It’s an amazing tool.

I don’t see how it doesn’t replace nurse practitioners or PAs at urgent care (or some form of AI) in the next 10 years. The speed and depth of information is incredible and gets my own mind firing very quickly. I’m as anti tech as you get and I find it fascinating.

I use ChatGPT for student recommendation letters. I just list the kid’s activities, accomplishments and memberships, set some parameters for how long you want it, and it does it instantly. If it needs tweaking, I can edit it fast and make it sound more personable. This used to take me up to 30 minutes to write something original that sounded good to me. It really helps your productivity, especially when there are sometimes 20 requests at once for letters.

Why should I not use ChatGPT?

That's a great question — and a thoughtful one. There are valid reasons why ChatGPT might not be the right tool for certain situations. Here are some important considerations:
1. Accuracy & Reliability Fact-checking required: While ChatGPT can provide detailed responses, it occasionally makes factual errors or outdated assumptions, especially on recent events or niche topics. Not a primary source: It doesn’t generate new research or firsthand data — it synthesizes existing information.
2. Bias & Ethical Concerns Like any AI trained on human data, ChatGPT can reflect societal biases or inadvertently present biased perspectives. It’s also not always clear why it gives a particular answer — there's a lack of transparency compared to vetted human expertise.
3. Privacy & Confidentiality You should avoid sharing sensitive personal, financial, or proprietary business information. Although OpenAI takes privacy seriously, the platform isn’t a secure channel for private or regulated data.
4. Creativity vs. Originality ChatGPT is great for ideation and drafting, but it doesn’t create with human lived experience, intent, or originality. If your goal is deeply personal, emotionally resonant, or culturally nuanced art or writing, a human touch usually wins.
5. Dependency Risk Overreliance on AI tools for thinking, writing, or problem-solving can limit the development of your own critical thinking and learning skills.
6. Not a Replacement for Professionals It's not a substitute for doctors, lawyers, therapists, or financial advisors — it can supplement knowledge, but not replace expert guidance.

I’m like you - would like to know what you can do with it. I used it today but I’m amateur hour.

I use Copilot.
I asked it what is the most popular free ai assistant:

There are several free AI assistants that are widely used and highly rated. Some of the most popular ones include:
- ChatGPT (OpenAI) – Known for its versatility in text generation, problem-solving, and learning assistance.
- Microsoft Copilot – A strong alternative to ChatGPT, offering AI-powered assistance across various tasks.
- Google Gemini – Google's AI assistant, particularly useful for research and data analysis.
- Claude (Anthropic) – Focuses on privacy and ethical AI interactions.
- Perplexity.ai – Specializes in AI-powered search capabilities.
Each of these AI assistants has unique strengths, so the best one depends on your specific needs. Are you looking for an AI assistant for productivity, creativity, or research?

Sorry to break it to you, OysterPoboy.

I had Grok already draft up the LLC filing for Bawsace and the copyright for parody Versace collegiate wear.

With AI, you often have no clue what the source of the information was.

Or if that source even exists or the information is even real.
