Automating Email Drafts
Unlock Audio Lesson
Let's start by looking at how generative AI can help in drafting emails. Can anyone share how much time they usually spend on writing reports or emails?
I usually take about 30 minutes to write a detailed email.
Sometimes longer, especially if I need to gather data first.
Exactly! Now, generative AI can automate this task. For example, it can create a draft quickly by pulling in necessary information. This allows you to spend more time on important tasks. Remember, AI doesn't replace us; it enhances our capabilities.
That sounds really helpful!
It is! A good acronym to remember is 'SAVE' - 'Speed, Accuracy, Value, and Efficiency' when using AI tools.
So, with SAVE in mind, we can really boost our productivity!
Absolutely! Now, can anyone think of other tasks where AI could help save time?
Generating Code

Now, let’s talk about code generation. Who here has experience with programming?
I’ve done some coding, but it takes me a long time to troubleshoot.
I feel that too, especially with longer projects.
Generative AI can help in this area by generating code snippets based on requirements you provide. For example, if you need a function to calculate sums, the AI can write that for you!
That would save a lot of time!
Exactly! This means you spend less time coding and more time focusing on logic and high-level design. To remember this, think of the word 'CODE' - it stands for 'Create, Optimize, Debug, Enhance.'
I love that! It's a good way to keep those steps in mind.
Great! Let’s summarize: Generative AI can automate coding tasks, reducing time spent on repetitive coding activities.
Summarizing Documents
Unlock Audio Lesson
How many of you often have to read long reports or studies?
Almost every week in my classes!
It can be overwhelming to take notes from long readings.
Indeed! Generative AI can summarize lengthy documents into concise paragraphs, allowing you to grasp essential points quickly. Imagine summarizing a 20-page document in just five minutes! What do you think about that?
That sounds amazing. I could actually get through my reading list!
Exactly! Remember 'TIME' - 'Transform, Input, Minimize, and Extract.' This will help you focus on the summary process.
Awesome tip, thanks!
To wrap up: Generative AI can significantly enhance productivity by summarizing extensive documents efficiently.

This includes: • Creating drafts of emails or reports • Generating code for websites or software • Summarizing long documents
Detailed Explanation
Generative AI can assist with various types of tasks that traditionally consume a lot of time. For instance, it can draft emails or reports by pulling together information and creating coherent text. It can also generate lines of code for software applications and can even summarize lengthy documents into concise overviews, saving users hours of work.
Examples & Analogies
Think of a student who has to write an essay. Instead of spending hours organizing their thoughts, they can use generative AI to create an outline and draft that highlights the key points they want to make in just a few minutes, giving them more time to refine their argument.

Example: An office worker uses ChatGPT to summarize a 20-page report in 5 minutes.
Detailed Explanation
This example illustrates how generative AI can significantly reduce the time spent on tasks. In this case, instead of reading a lengthy report, the office worker uses a generative AI tool to quickly extract the essential information, allowing for faster decision-making and action.
Examples & Analogies
Imagine a busy manager who receives numerous reports every day. Instead of reading each report fully, they can ask generative AI to provide a summary, enabling them to stay informed without dedicating hours to reading each document.
