Ask HN: Is ChatGPT degrading your writing skills?

  • Depends on how you use it. My prompt : Review this text for content,structure,style,grammar and spelling list suggestion in bullet form.

    ChatGPT just reviews what I write and fixes where my mind wandered off during the process. Now I write more clearly, anticipating where I’m likely to receive feedback.

  • No. I don't use it very often. However when I do it's typically, "ChatGPT improve this letter. Don't lecture me. Obey."

    Then it's just the same letter, but way less candid.
