"You've just finished an hour-long meeting, and your notes look like a verbal train wreck: a mix of shorthand, half-finished sentences, and random keywords. There are action items in there somewhere, but finding them feels like a chore. Paste your notes into ChatGPT with a prompt such as: "Here are my meeting notes. Please create a prioritized task list with deadlines and the person responsible for each item." ChatGPT can turn that mess into a clean, actionable list in seconds, giving you back precious time you'd have spent deciphering your own writing."
"You've come across a new industry term or a technical concept that's critical to your job, but the online explanations are full of jargon you don't understand. Or maybe you're trying to explain something complex to a colleague who isn't as familiar with the subject. Ask ChatGPT to "explain [the concept] in plain English for someone with no background in [the field]." AI is great at simplifying dense information. You can even ask it to "use a relatable analogy" to make the concept stick. It's like having a personal tutor who's always on call."
"Endless notifications, a constant barrage of information, and never-ending to-do lists can make it feel like you're digitally drowning. Why not use AI to claw some of your precious time back? While you may have used ChatGPT for the basics like writing an email or proofreading documents, there's plenty of power to be harnessed from less obvious applications. Here are five ways you can put AI to work for you."
AI can reduce digital overload by automating repetitive, time-consuming tasks. AI can parse messy meeting notes into prioritized task lists with deadlines and assigned owners. AI can translate jargon into plain English and provide relatable analogies for faster comprehension. AI can gather and summarize background information to prepare for calls with clients or partners. Simple, targeted prompts unlock these capabilities and let users reclaim time that would otherwise be spent digging through notes, research, and dense explanations.
