Maybe it's not competing against us, maybe it's doing the things that we shouldn't have to spend our time doing, so that we can free up our time for more valuable pursuits. It's just gonna take us a little bit of time t

I just created a prompt to do this yesterday. The cover letters it was outputting were just as good as the ones I usually write, and a lot less effort. Unfortunately, with this taking off, I don't think a good cover letter is going to

A truly "intelligent" AI would probably have told me that the name for this is an acrostic sentence. Now that I know, I tried a few more prompts. Me: "Can you generate an acrostic sentence for "hello"?" GPT-4:
