Continuing with the Email theme, let’s take a look at some of the do’s, don’ts, and probably shouldn’ts of using AI in email.
DO
DO use for brainstorming
DO use for grammar checks
DO use for proofreading
DO use for rewording awkward sentences
DON’T
DON’T rely solely on AI for information
DON’T share confidential information
DON’T lose your voice/personality
DON’T expect AI to be perfect
PROBABLY SHOULDN’T
PROBABLY SHOULDN’T use all the supplied emojis
PROBABLY SHOULDN’T use the “—” that AI overuses
AI has a writing style that many people can easily spot. Emojis, especially the rocket, are giveaways that AI wrote the text. The other big giveaway is the “—”. Many of us were using the em dash way before AI, but AI overuses it and now unfortunately that means em dash screams “AI wrote this”.
