This is going to revolutionise office work.

If it works as advertised, we are witnessing the complete reshuffling of (office) work and unprecedented productivity increases.

I'm wondering about the future job market.

No it won't, we'll get more useless texts because it's easier to write them, we'll get more communication errors because people will only read the summaries instead the real texts.

> people will only read the summaries instead the real texts

I can see a world where more humans get better at writing concise text.

Humans who can write obviously as humans and not sound too GPTish are about to become very valuable. Everyone else, especially folks who naturally use a GPTish style are about to have some sudden difficulties.

There will probably be no “real texts”, just key facts. Your personal AI can phrase the content to your taste based on the context.

To my taste based on the context sounds like another filter bubble.

It seems like everyone is just focusing on auto-generated/summarized emails which is rather myopic. The real value add here is the ability to make all of an organization's data more easily discoverable and searchable.

By uploading it into the GPT model? Sounds dangerous.

How is it any more dangerous than existing cloud storage use?

> If it works as advertised.

Dit it ever happened that advertisements of hyped things did not work out as advertised? Wink, wink.
