Fun fact: The saying “work smarter, not harder” is coming up on its 100th birthday. Coined in the 1930s by industrial engineer Allen Morgenstern, this simple, pithy directive is arguably more achievable today than ever before.
Thanks to generative AI chatbots such as OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Google’s Gemini, and Anthropic’s Claude, it’s never been easier to quickly create text, images, code, and more. Here are few practical ways you can leverage them to power up your productivity.
Create content
If you spend any time crafting marketing copy, drafting emails, outlining blog posts, or even brainstorming ideas, generative AI tools can save you an incredible amount of time.
Simply input a few keywords or a brief description, and watch as the AI generates initial drafts, outlines, or even complete pieces of content.
Sample prompts:
- “Write a social media post announcing a new product feature for our accounting software. Keep it under 140 characters and include relevant hashtags.”
- “Generate three different subject lines for an email marketing campaign promoting our summer sale.”
- “Create an outline for a blog post titled ‘The Top 5 Benefits of Using AI for Project Management.’ ’’
Summarize information
Drowning in readables? Generative AI can help you separate the wheat from the chaff far faster than even the speediest of human speed-readers.
You can condense lengthy documents, emails, reports, and more into concise summaries, without spending hours reading.
Sample prompts:
- “Summarize the key findings of this market research report into a few paragraphs.”
- “Extract the action items from this email thread.”
- “Synthesize the customer feedback from this collection of online reviews into an overview of common themes.”
Generate ideas
If you’re not quite ready to trust generative AI to reliably create content or summarize information for you, rest assured that it can act as a powerful brainstorming partner.
You can leverage AI to generate a wide range of concepts, muscle through writer’s block, or help you think of new ways to solve problems.
Sample prompts:
- “Brainstorm 10 different marketing campaign ideas for a sustainable fashion brand targeting Gen Z.”
- “Generate five unique names for a new coffee shop with a focus on local beans.”
- “Come up with three different approaches to improve customer engagement on our website.”
