How many of you are using ChatGpt to help you with your work, and not telling your boss/co-workers? (aussie.zone)

Just out of curiosity. I have no moral stance on it, if a tool works for you I'm definitely not judging anyone for using it. Do whatever you can to get your work done!

I use ChatGPT fairly frequently. For example, I often have to write a business email. I'm usually pretty good at it. But sometimes I don't have the time or desire to find the right wording. This is where ChatGPT comes into play: I have trained my writing style using several examples and then simply have the quickly written emails beautified.

My boss doesn't know about it, but I don't hide it either. My company is very, very slow on the technical side and will only understand the benefits of AI in a few years.

Another person chiming in with the same use case. It's saved me SO MUCH time and it really helps get over the anxiety-related procrastination.

This is pretty much what I use it for too. Plus it was my ghost writer for sections of my website content and helped me update my bio for my proposal templates. I would never give it client information. But it sure is handy getting me over writer's block. I usually have it reword its answer 3 times and then I edit them together using the bits and pieces that work best.
