Practice with ChatGPT: Improving Writing Style
Now let's move on to practice. In this section, we will offer you several exercises that will help you use ChatGPT to improve your writing style. We will suggest different situations and tasks that you can solve with the help of ChatGPT, and show how to use feedback from AI to improve your text.
Task 1: Modernizing Existing Text
Choose a text you wrote earlier - it could be an old blog post, report, essay, or even a long letter. Your task is to freshen up this text and make it more appealing with the help of ChatGPT.
Read your original text and identify which aspects you would like to improve. These could be structure, tone, clarity, or something else.
Use ChatGPT to ask for advice on improving these aspects. For example, you might ask, "How can I make this text more compelling?" or "Can you suggest a new introductory paragraph for this text?"
Apply the advice received and edit the text.
After completing the editing, compare the original and final versions. What changes did you notice? How have these changes affected the overall impression of the text? Which version do you prefer?
