Have you ever worked in an office that uses a fax machine? If you need a document sent securely to another office, signed by someone, and then sent back, then a fax machine is the best tool for this job. Emails can be hacked, ignored or sent to junk mail and forgotten about. And you need a scanner, which never work properly.
I used ChatGDP to create a presentation about unitizing ChatDP to improve our business processes. Worked like a charm. If I can get that thing to do more and more of my work while I screw off I'm good with it.
Chatgpt is finally levelling the playing field for foreign people like me who want to work independently in Japan. I speak intermediate/advanced level Japanese (JLPTn2) but my correspondence with my customers has always looked amaturish at best. Now I'm able to run my messy emails etc through Chatgpt, check the output and get super-professional emails in return (as well as advice on best practices).
I'm able to get business advice that was just unheard of before in a matter of seconds. Two examples: 1) Is it legal to show prices excluding tax? 2) Can I sell alcohol from my eikaiwa? Previously I would've had to sift through unreliable gaijin posts on reddit or something or spend hours translating pages that turn out to have nothing to do with my question. Now I get clear, reliable answers in seconds.
It's the gamechanger I've been waiting for.
(btw the answer to 1 and 2 are no, if you pay consumption tax, and no, you need a license).
Not getting tired of it. I just completely ignore it.
It doesn’t strike you as odd or in any way ironic that you’d comment on an article about something you completely ignore? If you wanted to ignore it, just vote. Don’t bother commenting. Like me.
I love it. Every time I hear about it I get more excited about the future of tech. Anyone who doesn't want to adapt or accept sure seems to belong in Japan. Using fax machines and floppy disks in 2023.

That's exactly what ChatGPT would say!
I want to see you select all the boxes with traffic lights, right this instant!

I don't actually know what you are talking about. I'll get back to you once I have checked with Chat GPT.

Yes, but not as much as the UN's SDGs.

No, don’t know what it is, but I’m sick of hearing about “LGBTQ” or whatever

I used it when it first appeared for my studies but less now and I have returned to my books.
