Say hello to Claude
Have you recently been sent a long document which you’ve been assured is a ‘must read’ then cried a little when you realised it was 100 pages long?
AI is great at summarising long documents and distilling key points into a bullet point list that you can read in minutes, but the limited context window (that’s word length to most people) of ChatGPT has limited the usefulness of this functionality… until now.
Meet Claude, a free-to-use ChatGPT competitor from Anthropic that is particularly good at speeding up your reading. Claude can review materials ranging from legal contracts to academic papers and distill them down to key takeaways. No more wading through dense documents trying to pull out relevant details.
Just upload a PDF at claude.ai and ask Claude to summarise the key points as a bullet list. To make it more useful, provide some context (e.g. "I’m a sales manager preparing a summary for my team…”) or some guidance on tone of voice (e.g. “Use language that would make sense to a child”).
As always, if you find a particularly ingenious use for this tool, please let us know!
Tips and Tricks
Have you been using ChatGPT to draft e-mails or LinkedIn posts but struggle to make the output read like something you would write?
Try this: find an example of something you have written that you feel is a good representation of how you like to communicate. Copy/paste it into ChatGPT (ideally using GPT-4) with the instruction:
Write a description of my writing style based on the email/article below as a set of instructions that can easily be understood by ChatGPT.
Copy the description generated by ChatGPT and save it in your notes. Next time you’re using ChatGPT to draft an email or LinkedIn post, paste this description into your prompt and ask ChatGPT to use generate your content using these style guidelines. Hopefully you’ll get output that sounds a bit more like you.
If you’re particularly successful at this, you might even generate output that sounds so similar to you it is disconcerting… good luck!
And finally - what do Androids dream about?
The more eagle-eyed among you might know that the name Electric Sheep is inspired by Philip K Dick’s 1968 sci-fi classic Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? But what do androids actually dream about? If you find yourself in New York City, you can head over to the MoMA and find out. For a preview, take a look at this.
