    I had to do a presentation for work a few weeks ago. I asked co-pilot to generate me an outline for a presentation on the topic.

    It spat out a heading and a few sections with details on each. It was generic enough, but it gave me the structure I needed to get started.

    I didn’t dare ask it for anything factual.

    Worked a treat.

      You can ask these LLMs to continue filling out the outline too. They just generate a bunch of generic points and you can erase or fill in the details.

      That’s how I used it to write cover letters for job applications. I feed it my resume and the job listing and it puts something together. I’ve got to do a lot of editing and sometimes it just makes up experience, but it’s faster than trying to write it myself.
