to generate the same amount and quality of content as we would if we
were an 8-person team.
• Articles, posts
15. Policies and Legal Matters
• ChatGPT was originally trained on
this – it is very strong in this area
because this is well-documented
rules-based content
• Use this as a starting point to save
time – submit to proper HR or legal
counsel for fine-tuning
21. Bing

integrated – it does not mean the “database” is
integrated.

38. A Few Tips
• It’s an assistant – not a consultant and not a replacement … for now
• It’s a conversation – not a “prompt”
• Answers are not always correct
• They can be based on outdated information
• The more specific, opinionated, unusual or recent the topic or code –
the more work is left to the human
39.
40. • The most important medicine for a happier and healthier life is
good relationships.
• Loneliness is as harmful as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
• Loneliness is a bigger problem among younger people.
