Are you tired of hearing about ChatGPT in the news or around the water cooler? With the incredible growth of this platform, reaching over 100 million users in a short period of time, it’s no wonder everyone is talking about it. But don’t just take their word for it – experience the amazingness yourself! After typing in a few prompts, I was shocked by the responses ChatGPT gave me. I was so impressed, that I wanted to learn more about how ChatGPT could help me with my content creation and programming.
Last fall, while I was using ChatGPT for writing assistance and programming, and got tired of cutting and pasting, and switching between windows. Dealing with all the text formatting issues after pasting was just becoming time consuming and just plain annoying. It wasn’t working like I work, and I needed to fix that so I could take advantage of the profound productivity gains I was about to experience.
Geekwire wrote an article about Ghostwriter ChatGPT add-in for Microsoft Word and my add-in quickly got noticed around the world! Thousands of individuals visited the Microsoft Office add-in store and added Ghostwriter to their copy of Word. Two weeks after that article, I released the Ghostwriter for Microsoft Outlook which allow you to create amazing emails and freed you from “Writers Block”. Now I have just released a bundle for Microsoft Office which includes Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint and Word versions of the add-in.
As the world of technology continues to evolve, many people are concerned about the potential for Artificial Intelligence (AI) to replace human workers. The idea of AI replacing human workers is a common fear, but it is unfounded. AI is not capable of replacing human workers because it cannot match the creativity and innovation of the human mind. AI is designed to automate tasks and optimize processes, but it cannot think outside the box or come up with creative solutions to problems by itself. While it is true that AI is becoming increasingly capable, the reality is that it will not replace human workers, but rather it will augment them.
Rather than worrying about AI replacing information workers, it is important to focus on how AI can be used to augment information workers. AI can be used to unlock opportunities, foster innovation, and help make better decisions. AI can be a powerful tool for augmenting our information workers productivity, and it is important to embrace this potential in your business.
I have used it for programming, research, email responses, advertising, graphics, social media, contractual agreements and many more tasks. Yes, it actually helped me do all these roles without having to reach out to others for help. This has allowed me to increase my personal production, about 5x, which is just outstanding considering I am a one-man development shop.
I believe one of the main issues we should all be hyper focused on is the role of big tech when it comes to AI privacy. These companies need to be held accountable that AI models are trained on data that respects individual privacy. AI models rely on vast amounts of data to learn and improve, and if that data contains personal information, it can be used to build models that violate privacy. For example, if an AI model is trained on data that includes sensitive personal information, such as health records or financial data, it can potentially be used to infer information about individuals that they did not intend to share.
I believe in COMPLETE PRIVACY when it comes to Ghostwriter, it is best for all of us to keep our personal information private. Ghostwriter was created to keep your information private between you and the AI. My biggest concern about AI is that big tech will be peering into your AI stream, saving your prompts and responses, mining your data and selling it to the highest bidders.
I’m literally a one-man development shop, I do every task myself. But, once I introduced AI into my workflow, my personal productivity has increased beyond my imagination. I recommend to RUN, and don’t walk, into these technologies. They can be a tremendous benefit to you and your business information workers. And if you’re not thinking about how to put them into action, I’m pretty sure your competitors are already planning for them.
