I find myself using it more and more, it’s like a search engine on steroids that’s supercharged on rocket fuel.

I like that you can plainly speak to it as if it’s a conversation and go down whatever rabbit hole of information you’re looking for. It’s like having a conversation with a really smart person that is an expert on a specific topic, you can bob and weave your steam of consciousness through the “conversation” and come out with accurate and specific information your looking for.

I see the skillset to focus on as being able to manipulate this technology. I’ve watched some younger people use it and I’ll just say that it’s eye opening to see how everyone uses it differently.

Do you use it, and if so how?

I’m looking for different thoughts for people on how they manipulate it. If you have 10 or 100 different approaches in your wheelhouse you will be better off for it.

The world is yours.

I’ve been using Microsoft’s Copilot version. It seems rather limited in capabilities, but it’s more useful than simply googling. But, I’ve also found that when it answers, it’s necessary to ask more questions, because it either provides incomplete answers or is incorrect on the first try.

And don’t even try to ask anything that is even distantly related to politics, as it’ll refuse to answer.

I’m too lazy to bother with any other version……or maybe at my age it just isn’t all that important.

I use it daily. Sometimes for info, sometimes for document or report templates. If I want to talk out a topic before I have to present to my board it's helpful as a sounding board. It really is an extraordinary tool.

My son has been using it to help write a text to audio program. It uses the camera to track hand movements and currently makes a stick figure hand on the screen, to point at words like a cursor. It's all very black magic to me, but amazing.

I’m using it to study for a promotional exam (god help you all). I load policy into it and have it make me multiple choice questions based off the .pdf.

🤷🏻‍♂️
Yore not allowed to promote until you catch you know who and make him spend at least one night in jail for VC23103.

I’m consistently finding new uses for it that make me realize I’m using a small fraction of its capabilities. It’s great for creating a job interview questions, just dump the job description in and tell it how many. Take your notes and then tell it to create the interview feedback.

I recently started asking it to analyze data. Then I realized you can dump a contract in and ask it specific questions about the contract.

Super useful but I too want to utilize it more.

The only time I’ve seen it fail me is when trying to find the midpoint between two people driving towards each other on a given route. Seemed easy but it couldn’t do it.

Yes, I am powered by GPT technology! My purpose is to assist users by providing information, answering questions, and offering help with various tasks.
