A client asked me to bring ChatGPT and its possible impact on the assistant profession into a forthcoming corporate workshop, so I set it to test today with my to-do list as a test case.

I approached it through the lens of how it can create efficiency and whether it could do everything better than I could as a (former) EA.

Here’s what I put to the test:

Comparison to an article I’ve written for a magazine - based on my long experience working with CEOs

For ideas for a freebie to gift to my newsletter community next week - I related this to coming up with event ideas

Possible questions to ask in a podcast interview next month - I related this to creating a briefing document for a CEO

Writing a section of my next newsletter - I related this to drafting internal comms

Content for a solo podcast episode I’m recording - I related this to creating town hall content or first draft report writing on a market insight

An email response to a frequently asked question - I related this to a BAU assistant task
