ChatGPT will change writing forever.

But it will also ruin many creators.

Here are the 7 best ways to use ChatGPT for writing (and 1 you want to avoid):
ChatGPT is a phenomenon.

It’s democratizing content creation (and other skills) in ways we’ve never seen.

For writers and content creators, this is amazing.

But it also presents a problem...
Many creators will get sucked into the convenience of ChatGPT.

Instead of pushing their own curiosity and creativity, they’ll outsource their writing to ChatGPT.

That will result in generic, vanilla fluff.

Stuff like this:
This will ruin many content creators.

What once made them unique will be lost.

There’ll be no way to distinguish their content from AI content.

Once that happens, there will be no reason to follow their work.
But this doesn’t have to be the case.

There are smart ways writers and creators can use ChatGPT to enhance their work and process.

Here are the 7 best ways:
Brainstorming:

ChatGPT is a wonderful tool for ideation.

Use it to generate ideas that spark your curiosity and creativity.

Then make those ideas your own.
Research:

ChatGPT is a free research assistant.

Use it to give you background information on any topic you want, then develop your unique take.
Editing + Proofreading:

ChatGPT is a built-in editor.

Use it for proofreading, identifying grammatical errors and suggesting ways to enhance your writing.

(Note: This is called "line editing." I don't think ChatGPT can replace all forms of editing).
Collaboration:

ChatGPT makes collaboration easy.

Use it for exchanging ideas and flushing out concepts in real-time with other writers and creators.
Outlining:

ChatGPT makes outlining content easier than ever.

Use it to create quick structures that you can then build out, never having to start from a blank page again.
Simplifying:

ChatGPT is a great tool to simplify your writing.

Use it take your original writing and make it more concise (you can then edit the new version to fit your voice, if needed).
Summarizing:

ChatGPT is great for summarizing complex topics.

Use it to create an initial summary that you use as a starting point for your own piece of content.
7 smart ways to use ChatGPT for writing:

• Outlining
• Simplifying
• Summarizing
• Collaboration
• Research
• Brainstorming
• Editing + Proofreading

Do NOT use it to copy/paste generic AI content as your own.

Keep sharing your unique voice and insights.
