Yes, in 2024, you’ll be conversing (written) with AI quite a bit. Here’s how you can get in on the game.
You can use ChatGPT in two main ways for written conversation:
- Real-time with chatbots
- Generating responses for you
If you’re tech-savvy, creating your own AI-backed chatbots is within your grasp already. I won’t describe the details of how to do it here, but you can create the chatbot and train it on all of your information, then make an interface to it available to the public.
Granted, creating chatbots appeals to a limited audience. So number two may be more interesting to you. Here’s an example of how I use it.
I’ll get a long email thread that started way before my inclusion. Assuming no confidential material, I’ll paste the entirety of the thread into ChatGPT and ask it the following:
“Summarize this thread for me. If I am being asked to do something or respond, tell me, and then formulate a response”
Out pops a summary of the thread, an indication of whether I’m am tasked with something, and if so, an initial response. Often, that response is good enough to go as is. If the required response does need a decision from me, ChatGPT will ask me what I want the decision to be.
The bottom line: ChatGPT can help you both speed up your ability to respond and improve the responses you give.
