Heh, I guess it could read like that. I just can't see how GPT3 could be used to help with a genuine paper (like copilot does for code). If it's just cheating, that's not very interesting.

An idea I've had while writing books and how GPT3 could help.

The interesting/fun bit is creating the insight. Like 5 bullet points. Then you need a good anecdote to drive the point home. Another 5 bullet points.

Expanding those 10 bullet points into prose is the boring part. GPT3 could do that and create a vomit draft for you. Then you can polish the draft into good prose, which again is the fun part.

Just based on what I’ve seen I feel like you could feed it the insightful bits that were original and it could word it eloquently. It would work better/worse based on subject.
