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.

    links to Wikipedia

    Once I was trying to make small talk irl with someone and asked her how many official languages were in her country of origin, and she stone cold looked it up on Wikipedia and started reading aloud to me from it at great length.

    The kicker was I happened to already know about it, I just thought it might be something she would like to talk about from her perspective as an emigrant.
