How to use AI to communicate better
Ever read a message that just hit you the wrong way?
I definitely have. And that’s because communication—especially written communication—is one of the hardest parts of the job.
I’d find myself typing a hasty reply, trying to get it out of my system. I've learned to pause instead of reacting over time (and with A LOT of meditation and patience).
But one thing never gets easier: interpreting tone.
Especially when:
• I don’t know the person well.
• The message is mainly written.
• Nuances get lost because it’s not my native language.
• Or... I’m feeling stressed, insecure, or burned by similar messages before.
Recently, I found a hack: using ChatGPT as a tone-checker.
It helps me check both others' tone—and mine.
It’s surprisingly helpful! If you’re curious, I’ve shared some of the prompts I use in the image below. Have you tried this before? Or do you have your own tips for handling tricky tone interpretations?
