It’s not every day that one bears witness to the birth of a technology that will undoubtedly change the world and the way we live in it. For years, we’ve watched movies and shows about artificial intelligence. Still, those were always considered science fiction—just a figment of someone’s imagination of how things could be in the future. But that future is here now.
With the rise of artificial intelligence comes the need to learn new ways of doing things we’ve been doing all along—like using the written word to express our thoughts.
Helping us strengthen our writing is just one of the many ways in which artificial intelligence can be helpful. But it’s not as easy as asking it to generate a text for you, as doing this can be problematic. That’s why we will teach you how to correctly use ChatGPT along with LanguageTool to generate compelling, error-free writing.
Before we do that, let’s cover some basics, like what LanguageTool and ChatGPT are and why you should avoid using artificial intelligence to generate your entire text.
