  • Not the person you asked, but I have a similar use-case.

    I write a lot of emails for work. Most of them are written from templates that I’ll use dozens of times a day, and some of those templates are just large blocks of text full of information that are ugly and hard to read.

    I’ll sometimes take these templates, plug them into ChatGPT, and ask it to reword the email. Perhaps I want it to have a more empathetic tone for an emotionally-elevated user, or maybe I need it to sound more technical for a more knowledgeable user, or simplify the explanation for a less knowledgeable user, etc. I’ll then use that output as a base to write my own version from there.

    None of the GPT output goes into my actual emails, though. I’m mostly using it for inspiration purposes, to help me write my own messages with verbiage or perspectives I may not have originally considered. It’s super useful when you have a user who just isn’t understanding your instructions and you need to word it differently, or if you just need a fresh take on some stale templates.








  • It’s hard to compare, because Spotify has a lot of features that aren’t available on alternatives.

    If you’re just looking for music availability and audio quality, then the cost of Spotify is pretty middle-of-the-road as long as you’re a westerner with mostly western musical tastes. But when you start getting into other qualities like social features, recommendation algos, API and third-party app integrations, multi-device controls/playback, etc… a lot of those things just aren’t offered by competitors. Those features may not matter to you, but they should probably be considered when comparing platforms.

    Spotify also has a lot of promotional pricing that they offer. I think students get a pretty substantial discount. They also offer family plans, so the cost can be split significantly that way, as well.
