Hello guys, thank you for joining me today. In this article, I will explain how to use ChatGPT, a generative retrained Transformer language model, to help you with writing your assignments.
ChatGPT is a British artificial intelligent language model specifically designed for writing reports and dissertations. By using this tool, you can save a lot of time and become more efficient, allowing you to focus on core tasks such as editing and finding the most recent references.
To get started, you need to open an account at chat.openai.com and sign up using your email address. Once you are logged in, you can use either GPT version 3.5 or 3. Here’s the catch: GPT 3.5 offers a paid commercial subscription called Scientific Definition 4.0 for £20 a month. However, you don’t need to spend that much money. I will share some tricks with you to maximize the use of the free version.
The first trick is to be explicit about what you want. By providing custom instructions, you can give more details about your assignment. For example, you can mention that you are a postgraduate student based in the UK, studying for an MSC in data science or an MBA. By being specific, you can get better responses from ChatGPT.
The second trick is to provide more details about the format in the prompt. This helps ChatGPT generate the best responses. For instance, you can ask it to critically discuss marketing luxury products using social media in the AIDA model, with full references. The more specific you are, the better the results.
If you’re not satisfied with the first response from ChatGPT, you can use the ‘Regenerate’ option to get more responses. This allows you to compare different responses and choose the one that suits your needs best. It’s always good to engage in the discussion with ChatGPT, as it helps the model understand your needs better.
Another trick is to ask ChatGPT to provide links and references. Always double-check the links for accuracy. However, avoid asking for the most recent references, as ChatGPT doesn’t have access to references from 2022 or 2023. To ensure you have the most recent references, it’s recommended to visit Google Scholar.
The fifth trick is to treat your prompt as a list of items. By providing a structured plan with specific key points, you can guide ChatGPT to generate a more focused response. Additionally, you can limit the response length to ensure it aligns with your requirements.
If you speak multiple languages, you can write in your preferred language and ask ChatGPT to write the report in perfect English for you. This way, you don’t have to worry about translation. However, make sure to follow the do’s and don’ts of using ChatGPT. Always provide more conceptual explanations and avoid copying and pasting, as it is considered plagiarism and academic dishonesty.
Once you finish using ChatGPT, make sure to review and edit the generated content. Enter the assignment with originality and ensure that your own thinking is reflected in the final submission. Remember, there are software programs available to detect plagiarism, so it’s important to submit original work.
In conclusion, ChatGPT can be a valuable tool for writing assignments. By following these tips and tricks, you can make the most out of this language model and improve your academic writing. Good luck with your assignments!
