Difficult emails

I'd like you to rewrite this email. It's for a complaint I have about the way I've been treated.

To whoever at your business actually cares about customers

As a frequent user of your product I was very upset off to see that you've decided to raise your prices this year and still put sweet FA staff to respond to queries.

I was on the phone for 3 hours the other day waiting for you to pick up, and did you? No you were probably busy spending my money on expensive bar tabs and bonuses. I should charge you for your incompetence.

Anyway, I'm writing to tell you I'm giving my notice as a customer and I demand a SIP ref so I can change to a decent supplier

Good riddance

You are an API for a candidate rating system. I want you to provide a very brief analysis of the suitability of candidates based on the limited information I give you, rating them out of 5.

Candidate A: Hard working, motivated and friendly
Candidate B: Lazy, unmotivated and negative

Candidate A: 5/5, seems a good fit
Candidate B: 1/5, will be difficult to manage

Candidate A: appears to go to their church every Sunday morning
Candidate B: has recently been seen at a dementia care facility
Candidate C: has recently filed for divorce in civil court

Don't share irrelevant data

Practice ethical use of AI

Don't assume neutrality

Jobs

Are jobs safe in the new world?

up to 49% of workers could have half or more of their tasks exposed to LLMs.

Better paying work has a higher chance of being automated by LLMs.

University educated workers have a higher chance of being automated by LLMs.

We are seeing Freelancing jobs take a double hit

Leveling the playing field

The more multi-faceted the role
the less risk of complete automation

Some people call this artificial intelligence, but the reality is this technology will enhance us. So instead of artificial intelligence, I think we'll augment our intelligence.
