Episode Summary

In this "from the vault" episode originally released in March 2024, Cary dives into how to use ChatGPT for document creation, editing, and analysis. This is one of the most frequently asked topics he encounters, and even with new platform updates, the core principles remain solid and useful. Cary walks through real-world use cases—like responding to RFPs, summarizing long research documents, training employees, and using documents as templates for repeatable processes. He also shares how you can give ChatGPT context and goals to get better results, and how you can even turn ChatGPT's output into downloadable documents for teaching or sharing with your team.

3 Key Takeaways

• Documents can now come from Google Drive or OneDrive: You're no longer limited to uploading files from your desktop—linking your drives opens up powerful access to your personal document library.

• Analysis is often more powerful than creation: Use ChatGPT to compare documents, extract priorities, spot patterns, summarize insights, or even help with training docs based on your own past work.

• You can teach ChatGPT to teach others: Cary shows how to feed sample documents into ChatGPT and ask it to generate training guides, complete with context, goals, and instructions—essentially helping you scale your knowledge.
