    Wait, copilot and ChatGPT use are skills? Isn’t that a bit like how using a phone is a skill?

      More like googling skills. Definitely got some of my first jobs by telling my interviewer that I google shit I don’t know

        You might be surprised at how many people don’t really know how to use Google/a search engine effectively.

        Things like “what should I search for to find X” is a sentence I hear from both friends and colleagues quite often.

            I had a coworker in the early 00s that would repeatedly fail to search for something because she would type “www.goggles.com” into the address bar.

              It’s just unnecessary extra inefficient steps, usually by people not particularly tech-proficient. Not a moral judgement, just an observation!

              Most browsers I run into, you can search from the address bar. You can also disable or point to a different search engine, if you want. So you could skip going to the site. That aside…most browsers would accept google.com and not need the full https://www

              I say most anecdotally as I haven’t tested them all.

                  I know that’s the point, which is why I said it. The person I replied to asked if they were missing something, so I was attempting to educate them on said point. Then they edited their post to add the /s after the fact.

      It’s about at the same level as “Microsoft Office” as a skill. They’re probably working on embedding ChatGPT and DALL-E in that suite. I’ve actually asked ChatGPT for some tips on using advanced features that I didn’t know about and it worked nicely.

          I mean integrated directly into the interface of the apps. Example: they have an “Editor” tab for Word that can analyze and get into the document directly. I expect that this will be where the ChatGPT tools will be implemented. Or is there some professional version of ChatGPT that does that already? I have only tested the free one.

      Well we are talking about execs, they tend to not know what the fuck they’re talking about
