Here are some examples of tasks you can use AI chatbots for:
Translation and proofreading – a linguistic aid

Tone of Voice (SDU's voice) in text

- You can ensure consistency if there are many variations in writing styles in multiple texts.
- You can target the text to specific audiences and types of communication platforms.
Drafts of text, presentations, templates, etc.
AI chatbots are good at providing a first draft of the structure and content for the text, presentation, or template you want.
The draft can be the neutral suggestion that is professionally assessed and processed - either by refining the prompt or by manual further work.
Help with coding and Excel formulas
AI chatbots can help write code, correct code, and document code.
There is also a fairly good program knowledge, so AI chatbots can provide instructions for various functionalities in, for example, Excel. It can provide drafts of tables that are targeted for Excel, as well as formulas for processing data in Excel.
Inspiration and sparring partner
AI chatbots are very suitable for providing inspiration and acting as a sparring partner. It provides the first draft based on even a simple prompt, which kickstarts the task, idea, or the like.
You can have a dialogue with the chatbot about various topics, and you can assign it a role so that it provides feedback within a specific subject/area.
Analysis tasks
AI chatbots can handle large amounts of data, and you can, for example, upload a document where you can have the chatbot provide:
- Summary
- Thematic content
- Highlighting viewpoints or specific trends
- Proposed solutions
This can be a review of the results of surveys, consultation responses, reports, notes, etc.
Preparation of applications
AI chatbots can provide examples of how an application should be structured based on the premises to which the application is being made. This can be for foundations, projects, jobs, etc.
AI chatbots can, among other things, provide examples of relevant search terms and keywords that can make your further work with applications easier.
Take special notice!
Technology is constantly evolving, so keep an eye on the latest features. AI chatbots can soon be used in entirely new contexts.
Never upload personally identifiable or business-critical data. Anything you share with AI chatbots, you also share with others (TECH companies and/or other users).
