"I almost always recommend people to start with a small problem that they have. So take a look at what you do on a day to day basis. And if there's something that is just taking up a little bit of time, 20, 30 minutes at a time. But you have to do it a lot, and maybe you might be able to automate it. But, you probably have to do it yourself because it requires a little bit of thought. That's a really good opportunity to use ChatGPT."
