Mostly business documents. My general process is this:&lt;p&gt;Think of the concept I want to write about as well as the supporting evidence for the topic. Ask ChatGPT to write me something in my target format using the topic and supporting evidence as input. What I get back is essentially a well-written skeleton that I can use to fill in additional details. Finally, I pass my revisions through ChatGPT to touch up any errors, rephrase wordy things, etc. I lightly edit the final draft and I usually have an excellent result.</text></item></parent_chain><comment><author>moonchrome</author><text>So you are providing sensitive business information&amp;#x2F;facts to a third party service that&amp;#x27;s likely going to use those for training, analysis, store it, etc. ?&lt;p&gt;It should be fine for most places I guess - but I suspect a decent amount will have a problem with this.&lt;p&gt;This is my main reservation about copilot as well (quality issues aside).</text></comment>

It&amp;#x27;s a very beneficial, symbiotic relationship.&lt;p&gt;The problem will be the asymmetric, uni-directional flow to those whose sole function is mindless consumption of AI-generated content.</text></comment>
