What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Hello and welcome to Simplified Speech, the Q-Lips series which features clear, natural, and easy to understand English conversations between native speakers. Joining me now to co-host this episode is Indiana. Hello, Indiana. Hey, Andrew. What's up? Not too much. How are you doing? Pretty good. It's going to be a busy week, but I'm here with you to end my Monday. We're recording on a Monday and we have such an interesting topic to talk about. So I'm super hyped to have this conversation. Yeah. So today, everyone, we are going to talk about using AI to help you write personal messages. And Indiana, you were the brainchild behind this episode. So why don't I let you introduce it? Okay, so I teach English. I'm a tutor or an English teacher to students online and for my intermediate or advanced students.
One of the things that I love to do is try to find an interesting article or YouTube video to discuss in our lessons. And sometimes it's like really hard to find good material, like really interesting, engaging material to have a whole discussion about. But this article that I found was super interesting. I found this article in The Guardian that basically was discussing, is it okay to to use AI, like chat GPT, large language model services, is it okay to use AI for personal messages? Like, for example, if your friend's mom or dad passed away, and you did not know like how to express like, I'm sorry for your loss, you know, I'm there if you need me. and you really wanted to say the right thing, but you didn't know how to say it, is it okay as a friend, as someone in their life, is it okay for you to go to chat GPT, for example, and say, hey, can you help me write this?
So it's just this big question of like, what is the boundary? What are the lines with this? And I was like, wow. And all of the students that I've discussed it with were very interested and had very strong opinions about this. Yeah, it's going to be interesting to get into our conversation today and discuss this in more detail. And I'm looking forward to it as well. I think this is a really timely topic and something that a lot of people are thinking about and using these days is AI to help them write. We'll get started with the conversation in just a moment.
