This looks great!
By the way, I can't be the only one using ChatGPT to rewrite docs and messages, right? I regularly tell ChatGPT: "Rewrite the following, don't make it too formal:.." or "rewrite the following optimizing for brevity:..." and it usually spits something out much clearer than my first revision. Sometimes there's just one sentence I was struggling to write clearly and this helps a ton. Really valuable in this remote work world we live in where so much of our communication happens in writing.
- tommica 3y agoYeah, it's a good use case for it. I also use it to translate messages for me in languages that I am weak in, and I really like it's ability to summarize things.
- Aurornis 3y agoI tried this with mixed results. I’d spend so much time prompting, rerunning it, proofreading, and making minor changes that I wasn’t really coming up with a more efficient workflow. Rewriting the text myself a couple times produces more concise results after. Playing with ChatGPT certainly felt like more fun at first. It feels like you’re making more progress until you look at the clock and realize you’ve spent 10 minutes messing around in ChatGPT where another 60 seconds of rewriting would have worked fine.
- jskherman 3y agoI got introduced to https://goblin.tools https://goblin.tools on the Fediverse and found it handy ever since for some of the usual things I ask ChatGPT. On it, there's the "Formalizer" for this use case, and "Magic To Do" to help break down tasks (and there's the option to generate time estimates too).
- xwowsersx 3y agoOh neat, thanks for sharing!
- jackthetab 3y agoNope, you're not the only one. I do the exact thing, including saying "Rewrite the following, don't make it too formal". I think the results are excellent.
