Do you use AI to draft messages?

No. I want my messages to be in my style/voice/tone, not the usually overly formal and verbose style of most of these AI tools. I also don’t want to need some other tool for basic human communication.

I keep hearing how people can’t write an email anymore without AI and I always wonder what all these people did 2 years ago before these tools excited?

It’s too slow. If it were built into my composition tools - as I’m sure it, one day, will be - I might, but I can compose at even a phone’s keyboard faster than I can direct my browser to chatgpt to prompt, review and copy it.

But I’m sure for a coming generation with little experience writing it may be faster.

I use it to research/brainstorm all the time, but I prefer to write my own emails. Not because the AI can't do a good job (it can), but it's a sign of respect for the other person when I take time to personalize something for them.

Nobody likes getting automated messages.
