I'm very transparent with my boss (c-suite) about my use of GPT. I'm a strategic executive. My work product and productivity has improved by leaps and bounds with the help of AI applications. My C-boss condescends on anything he thinks I've used GPT to create. I published something to the team, and he said, "Did GPT do this for you?" My response was: "why on earth would I NOT use these tools? The lowest common denominator is now GPT-4-Turbo (ok, Claude Opus, perhaps). Of course, I used it!"
Often, I need to read regulatory documents that are 100's of pages and very dense. I chunk them by section and have an assistant summarize them with an API call to my OAI Dev account (crude RAG because I haven't figured out how to build a RAG application YET). I spend an hour crafting a summary instead of 16 hours, give or take, and spend $4 on OAI API calls.
I also create Python scripts to analyze proprietary data using GPT and create visualizations that our BI unit doesn't have the bandwidth to play with. I've made discoveries with 9-figure implications (we have taken action on these discoveries).
Finally, I am regularly called upon to write internal white papers on strategic topics. For the past six months, I've used GPT as a writing assistant, and now, I also use Perplexity as a resource. AI helps me organize, locate source material, and write a first draft. The last mile is often half of the work when writing these papers, and that is still an agonizing part of the process, heavily dependent on my specific knowledge and experience (domain expertise).
Is anyone else experiencing this? How do you handle it?
