The Amazing Chatgpt Will Blow Your Mind The only way to truly appreciate it is to check it out

If you have been reading all the hype about ChatGPT and are a little skeptical like I was, go try it out.

I started by asking it some simple questions, such as the one below, and was impressed by the answers.

“What is Conversational Leadership?” gave me this:

Conversational leadership is a style of leadership that involves actively engaging with team members through open, honest, and respectful communication. It emphasizes the importance of dialogue, collaboration, and relationship-building in order to create a positive and productive work environment.

Conversational leadership differs from traditional leadership styles in that it values the input and ideas of team members and encourages them to participate in decision-making processes. It also involves actively listening to and addressing the concerns and needs of team members, and fostering a culture of trust and transparency.

This style of leadership can be effective in a variety of settings, including business, education, and government, and is particularly well-suited to fast-paced, dynamic environments where quick decisions and collaboration are key.

I then asked it to write some WordPress PHP code for me and was shell-shocked. It returned perfect commented code in less than a minute, which would have taken me an hour to write and debug and even longer when I was less familiar with WordPress.

For example, I asked it to create a WordPress shortcode that retrieves a Wikipedia summary. It returned perfect code in less than a minute. When I wrote similar code myself a few months ago – it took me the best part of a day.

ChatGPT will have a massive impact on my productivity in further developing the WordPress site that underpins this blog/newsletter/blook and my writing. I doubt I will copy text verbatim, but if I do, I will credit it to ChatGPT. And in the same way, as I clip articles and blog posts to Evernote to inform my thinking, I will do the same with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT is not perfect but make no mistake, although it is hard to predict its impact, it is undoubtedly a game-changer.

Here is an excellent article where you can learn more about ChatGPT – What is it, what is it good at, and will it replace Google? but as I said above, go try it out.
