Real world AI over shiny tools
I have been paying close attention to AI, but not from the usual angle. I am less interested in shiny tools.More interested in what helps people move faster, think clearer, and remove friction from daily work. Based in Montreal, and curious to connect with people who are actually using this stuff for real. What are you using AI for right now?

I have been using ChatGPT and others for very heavy, down in the weeds, research on engineering issues with lithium iron phosphate battery (LFP) installations on recreational boats including integrating with Victron energy conversion and management systems. It has been very helpful but, and it is a big but, a user basically can’t ask a deeply technical question without some knowledge about what the result should be. ChatGPT has given wrong, sometimes seriously wrong, answers that I have been able to catch. I recommend caution when going really deep down a rabbit hole. Trust but verify.

Is everyone still loving ChatGPT or have you migrated elsewhere? I still use it daily but have noticed it crashing more and more... or lagging. It's becoming frustrating!

@John Santos I do very deep dives on technical subjects and find the use of Projects to be an incredible time and sanity saver.
Reviewing .pdf files and summarizing
Still learning. I have about 60 emails that have been converted to .pdf files on a particular subject. How can I input these files into ChatGPT, have the app digest them and produce a detailed summary.

Thanks all! I continue to be amazed.😳
Exporting a very long chat to MSWord
I am an engineer and I design electrical systems for boats. I have been using ChatGPT off and on for about a year as a technical source of information and guidance. To give a flavor of how I am using this tool here are some of the prompts: > What is considered 0% state of charge for a lithium ion cell? > Dendrite development in LFP cells? > UL489 vs. UL1077 comparison. Not really scintillating stuff but over the last year, the responses have been improving dramatically! My latest prompt was: What is the importance and theory regarding I^2t when specifying a fuse? This led to a one hour conversation that was as in depth as any graduate engineering course. I want to export this to a MSWord document and use as a training syllabus. I have searched and cannot determine how to accomplish this seemingly simple task. I have the ChatGPT Plus plan. Looking at some of the posts in this community is certainly eye opening. I would appreciate any help to solve this very basic and mundane problem.

It absolutely worked! I was digging very deep on a technical problem. I mean really, really deep. I had dug down from the original prompt/response about 8 or 10 layers. I tested asking for a .docx document but it only provided the document for the last prompt/chat. And I realized, based on Julie’s hint, that I could convert each section of this long series of prompts/chats by branching for each of those that I wanted and then prompting “Produce this as a .docx document”. Well, it worked and I am much impressed. Thanks Julie H.

As a dinosaur, I just plowed through PowerPoint never thinking that an AI application would be useful. Thanks for the education.😀
