I dunno how it's use can be stopped. Or why it should. I received approval for yet another shop with ChatGPT narrative help. I use it to draft a section and then I go back and revise it with my actual shop findings. It's factual. It's helpful.

Isn't this just a natural progression from a dictionary? An APA Guide? An MLA Guide? A spell-check app?

There is a constant risk of too much subjectivity and too little humanity. Somewhere, there is a happy medium between too much human subjectivity which could skew dry data and the complete absence of human input which includes nuances that tech cannot supply. AI and ChatGPT have become too much of a good thing.

IC work will continue to exist because businesses want to know the customer's EXPERIENCE. You can't fully capture a customer's experience with just raw audio and video files. That is where a factually crafted narrative comes in.

If you probe ChatGPT with the correct input, you can get a suitable output that needs less massaging than a total rewrite of a narrative. It takes practice.

I would not be doing SS if Chat did not exist. The grammar they require you have to damn near need to be a English major.

You have to tell it what you're actually writing. For example. Revise my REVIEW,....revise my COMPLAINT....revise my LETTER. Chat is a life saver and saves me soooooooo much time.

its getting stupider the more and more it gets flooded with information. ironic in how thats a reflection of society as a whole

I would not be doing this stuff if i couldn't use chat. It has also improved my grammar

I just said this! So true! Lol

Nonsense. When you use AI to write *your* reports for you, those aren't *your* words, so it's not *your* grammar that's seeing an improvement.

If you want to do yourself a favor, purchase a Business English textbook and begin reading.

EduWriting I regret to share that my negative experience with the site left me dissatisfied. With this bad experience, I cannot endorse this or any other "AI essay tool" that allegedly writes essays for students. They are located overseas and steal your content even if you don't use their service, but it's on a trial! My expectations were not met, and the tool proved to be unreliable. It is clear that whoever wants to use it for academic research and essay writing will go somewhere else (this is what I did). When it comes to relying on tools for critical tasks like writing essays, my advice is to exercise extreme caution and actively seek out alternative options (for example working with an experienced freelancer or research service).

Real human writers are more likely to fulfill your coursework requirements than an automated bot generating gibberish.

This website or service is not trustworthy as it has been found to be fake. Therefore, students are not recommended to use it. Additionally, there have been reports of data theft or unauthorized access. Therefore, students should avoid sharing any sensitive information with this service to prevent any potential harm to one's privacy and security. In general, AI writing tools are like soft automated plagiarism generators that are going to be detected by your school.

There is a reason why flesh and blood academic writers are still the way to go. AI is still too much in its writing infancy to be a truly reliable tool for anybody to use. Human beings, on the other hand, have a wealth of experience when it comes to writing academic papers. We started writing for ourselves first, then moved on to writing for other students. So we have the kind of experience that an AI can never have. The human experience factor will always beat an AI every single time. So use a human being for your writing needs instead. Unless, you actually want to write the paper yourself, then you can use an AI to get you started.
The opinions are that of the author's alone based on an individual capacity. Opinions are provided "as is" and are not error-free.

Some of my clients tried out AI and immediately realized that essays generated by AI are worthless, unless you happen to know that your professor doesn't even bother reading submitted projects.

I think it's useful in long shops where you can just voice record the narrative. The shorter ones with just clicking ratings it's next to useless.

What other things do you use AI for?

Yes, to what @drdoggie00 said.

As a follow-up, Gemini is better than ChatGPT IMHO. Although I am still against using it to write reports for mystery shopping, I have found it helpful for other things.

My experiences with AI continue to be laughable.

Or sad, in the case of a student who used it twice for a research project and generated a pair of abject fails. Not a single relevant fact was presented in either 4+ page, double-spaced document. All fluff with appropriate names and dates plugged in after the bot scrubbed the intertubes.

Or annoying and costly, in the case of the project I'm working on for the non-profit I do. It involves plugging the output of a sound-generating device into an iPad so an app can show stuff on its screen relative to the sound coming in. My developer uses ChapGPT to answer questions about things he is coding. Asked about the nature of the connection we need to make and received an inaccurate response which led him down a paid rabbit hole he didn't need to visit.

Last time I tried it (emphasis on 'last'), Google's Gemini couldn't properly answer a question about gas station hours.

If it can't get simple stuff like that right, I'm certainly not going to trust with it anything important.

It's not like you're going to have a choice, unless you remove yourself from tech. They is continuously lobbed in politics to become the default use and regulated out the competition. Companies are "saving" costs and shifting blame when things go wrong constantly. Bribery will be a thing regardless of region, so good look regulating that. More online companies are spinning up, taking data and disappearing when things go south.

So while you're not going to trust it with anything important, the important things that other people are going to be responsible for? They're probably going to offload their workload to those machine learning models. Think of all the data breaches that has been found this year. From downloading free programs that took saved cookies from hardware and uploaded once connected to the internet, to simply calling and faking as someone else to obtain credentials, the enshittification of life is clear as day.

Kaito, you said more than a mouthful here and what you wrote of - I am seeing it every day, in the craziest of ways and places. Enshittification has become ubiquitous.

I used AI to assist in writing a few narratives for an apartment shop. It was very useful. I used my words and incorporated theirs.

Gemini was a total joke the first (and only) time I tried it. Asked it for the hours at a gas station on a route and it came back with a totally incorrect response.

While only one of my students has been stupid enough to try to do a research project using AI, the results were laughable.

Not a single fact about the subject in 4+ pages of double-spaced text. Just a bunch of computer-generated puffery. They received 1 out of 250 available points because the subject's name was at the top of the paper.

AI is aptly named. It's artificial, and not worth a flying crap in my book. I require real intelligence...

You just earned a hearty GFY.

In response to a Google prompt, instead of typing in the typical search thread in the the appropriate field as is my MO, I decided to play along and 'asked' Gemini, "What are the convenience store hours for the XXXXX gas station in XXXX, XX?"

It came back with incorrect information, presented in a flowery screed.

Please tell us how you, The Obvious God Of All Things Digital, would have used it to obtain the desired information.
