OpenAI CEO Sam Altman shares how he uses ChatGPT in everyday life to do 'very boring things'

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman recently revealed how he uses AI tools for his everyday tasks and although many would think he would use artificial intelligence chatbots in highly complex ways, it's actually the opposite.

Speaking at a recent episode of Wharton organisational psychologist Adam Grant’s ReThinking podcast, when Altman was asked how he uses ChatGPT in solving problems at work, he replied: “Honestly, I use it in the boring ways, and I use it for like, help me process all of this email or help me summarise this document, or they're just the, the very boring things."

Altman isn't the only tech CEO to use AI tools to get mundane work done. Last year, Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella had shared that he uses his Outlook’s AI features to organise and prioritise his inbox, CNBC reported. Another tech CEO, Nvidia's Jensen Huang, whose company makes many of the high-powered computer chips that power AI large language models, said that he mostly uses AI chatbots to help him write first drafts.

“I give it a basic outline, give it some PDFs of my previous talks, and I get it to write my first draft,” CNBC quoted him as saying. “It’s really fantastic.”
