Just for clarity and transparency, I know when you skim over my blog posts you might notice the occasional ChatGPT-ism.
To be clear, I only use ChatGPT for grammar and spelling checks. Sometimes I’ll have it convert text to or from Markdown. That said, ChatGPT has its own lingo and “—” usage, and I usually don’t fight it if the changes are minor.
Common Use Cases
On my Mac: Highlight Text > Writing Tools > Proofread
Longer Posts: I’ll run them through the app so it can point out errors or changes. I still want to keep it mine, so I keep a close eye on what gets changed. For shorter posts like this one, I can quickly skim over and make adjustments.
Beyond that, I don’t use it to create what I publish on Substack or my personal blog.
