I use it a lot. When chat first became a thing, I spent ages learning how to prompt engineer, built several custom GPTs for different purposes, and basically thrre myself into learning how to use it in the most efficient way.
I have a PA one, who has been trained for the best part of a year, to write exactly like me. We argue daily, it challenges me, crucially it doesn’t just agree with what I say, and it is great for just bouncing ideas off.
I’ve got one that I use specifically for weight loss. I log my activity, my weight, exercise, meals etc with it and it helps me further optimise what I’m doing. I’m 3 stone down since I started with it.
Another one is one that I started building when I started building our new brand at work. It has seen every decision made, and been told the why. It has been trained to understand our values, our design system, our tone, and our decision making process. I challenge anyone to detect AI in any of our public facing stuff - it helps me do the work, envisage things, and reason things. It doesn’t do them for me. There is no one else at work who does my job, I need something that is fully up to speed to talk things out sometimes. Sometimes I can’t visualise how something should look so it gives me ideas. It’s great and we’ve built a premium brand that is outshining our competitors.
Finally, I have my style GPT. It knows my wardrobe, my body type, my colours, my preferred style, my quirks (such as hating anything vaguely bright around my neck). We plan my outfits weekly, we decided on which hair cut would work best for me and my lifestyle, we created a skin care routine that I actually follow, and I’ve never had more compliments.
I love AI, it’s the future so we’ve got to get on board with it. It’s going to replace jobs the same way that the computer did. It’s also going to need people to know how to use it, build it, train it, and maintain it. Refusing to engage with it is a foolish decision.
