AI is great at helping with all those "edge" tasks, the ones that there isn’t a guide for online and are a bit fiddly. Here are 5 ways I used ChatGPT recently to save me a ton of time:
- Interpreting legaleseWe have to fill in vendor assessments sometimes that haven’t been written with a human in mind. So I’ll ask ChatGPT to explain what they are looking for with a few examples to overcome the "blank page" problem.
- Language analysisI needed to work out what % of 1,500+ messages were non-English. So I connected a Google sheet and asked ChatGPT to do the maths for me, in an instant using a Python library.
- Regex translationsI needed to write some Regex (which I never learned) and translate it into 3 different languages. So ChatGPT wrote it for me.
- Input validation and formattingI needed to check over 150 phrases that I had included certain examples and then reformat them all to upload somewhere. ChatGPT rewrote them and told me what was missing then revalidated when I had updated.
- Built me a toolThis was a bit more random, but I wanted to build something for a friend that would tell them which horse coat they needed to use based on the weather in their location. ChatGPT walked me through the process and helped me with API debugging when I got stuck.
What I am trying to show is that, sure you can use it for all the "big" tasks and parts of your job. But it is often the little things that you do once in a while that you spend way too much time on and AI can help you with. You got any more fun examples?
