I have to hand in a short report

I wrote parts of it and asked chatgpt for a conclusion.

So i read that, adjusted a few points. Added another couple points..

Then rewrote it all in my own wording. (Chatgpt gave me 10 lines out of 10 pages)

We are allowed to use chatgpt though. Because we would always have internet access for our job anyway. (Computer science)

I found out on the last screen of a travel grant application I needed a coverletter.

I pasted in the requirements for the cover letter and what I had put in my application.

I pasted the results in as the cover letter without review.

I got the travel grant.

Who reads cover letters? At most they are skimmed over.

Exactly. But they still need to exist. That's what chat gpt is for. Letters, bullshit emails, applications. The shit that's just tedious.
