It's always been tough for me to take what's in my head and write concise business emails, proposals, etc., that aren't super long. I know I can ramble on. I've recently started using ChatGPT, and it's been awesome for turning my rough ideas into clear, effective emails. I worry about becoming too reliant upon it, though. Do you think it's a good tool to make writing better, or am I being lazy?

I always tell my team to use the tools that help them operate at their highest level. For me, ChatGPT is like having an assistant who knows how to summarize, edit, and organize my thoughts without judgment. I still own the message, the strategy, and the intent. If anything, it’s made me more confident in my writing because I’m less overwhelmed by the blank page. So no, you're not being lazy at all.

I think using AI tools for anything beyond brainstorming exercises is just a bad idea. Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I think being able to communicate clearly should be a foundational skill. It's especially important as writing style is one area where you can show some personality and wit. So farming that opportunity out to a glorified web scraper just strikes me as an exceedingly odd thing to do to oneself.

If you're worried about becoming reliant, you might be using it more like a crutch than a tool. ChatGPT and other AI tools aren't necessarily about making your ideas better. You should be starting from a strong foundation, and feed it the kind of prompts to help direct it. I find it's good for things like summarizing or changing voice, helping with a presentation, or visualizing something on occasion.

Look at it as a tool that is helping you come up with a more polished idea. You still have to put decent things into chat gpt to come out with something that makes any sense. Also go back over it after that and fix up anything else. Saves me a lot of time, just have to know what you are talking about to start with.

I live and die by it. 100% keep doing it.

Been looking into 2019 Infiniti QX50, Lincoln MKC, Mazda CX-5, Chevy Equinox, and other similar compact to mid size SUVs but having hard time making the decision.

What are some affordable SUVs that i can buy with ~$25k budget? Hopefully it's post 2019 model and has good fuel economy and reliability (low maintenance cost). I'm less concerned on the mileage but wanting good horsepower (~250hp). Any suggestions? Thanks for your insights.
