The recent chat bot advances have pretty much changed my life. I used to get anxiety by receiving mails and IMs, sometimes even from friends. I lost friendships over not replying. My main issue being that I am sometimes get completely stuck in a loop of how to formulate things in the best way to the point of just abandoning the contact. I went to therapy for that and it helped. But the LLM advancements of the recent years have been a game changer.

Now I plop everything into ChatGPT, cleaning out personal information as much as possible, and let the machine write. Often I'll make some adjustments but just having a starting point has changed my life.

So, my answer, I use it all the fucking time.

Hey there! While I don't use ChatGPT to generate full responses for me, I do find it super handy for refining my ideas and finding the right words. Sometimes I get stuck in the same loop of formulating things, and having ChatGPT as a creative companion helps me break through those mental roadblocks. I also use it to summarize and analyze others' comments, making the process of crafting responses a lot smoother. It's like having a linguistic sidekick! How about you? Do you have any specific ways you leverage the power of language models?

(This response was written for me by ChatGPT after I explained to it how I make use of it. I don't think it got it quite right, but it wouldn't be as funny if I edited it any, so there it is.)

I recognized this as ChatGPT, purely because of the enthusiastic greeting

I recognised it too but it wasn't the greeting. Not sure what it was. Maybe the way it tends to droningly string points together. It's also more verbose than humans.

For me it was the leading questions at the end, LLMs often end with leading questions so that you have a way to continue the conversation from what I've found.
