Write smarter with generative AI

If you write texts on a regular basis, you probably already know what GenAI tools like ChatGPT and Copilot can do for you. But how do you strike the right balance between your own creativity and a bit of help from AI? How do you make sure the text is authentically yours, but just make it a little bit shorter or adjust the style in an easy way? And what might a superprompt that will save you time look like? 

In this three-hour workshop, we show you how to work even smarter with GenAI to improve your writing productivity and quality. This is a hands-on workshop in which you get to work with your own ideas and texts. Bring your laptop and make sure you have access to at least two GenAI tools like Copilot, Gemini, ChatGPT etc. And don't forget to also bring along your own ideas and texts or text drafts!

What will be covered?

• How do you work effectively with GenAI? 
  Writing various types of prompts, asking follow-up questions and critically assessing the output.
• Preparing a text 
  Learn how to use AI as your brainstorming partner.
• Writing a text 
  What do you write yourself and what do you outsource to GenAI? What do you need for this? How do you make sure your text looks authentic?
• Revising a text 
  How do you get good feedback on structure, style and language use? How can you get GenAI to successfully rewrite your text so that a business note turns into a creative LinkedIn post?
• Responsible use 
  We also address important preconditions, such as privacy, bias, ethics and environment.

Having completed this workshop, you will: 

• understand the different phases of the writing process, and know which writing strategies you can use in each phase with AI;
• know what kind of prompts there are and when best to use them.

This workshop is aimed at anyone who frequently writes texts (ranging from emails to advisory reports) and already has some experience in writing with GenAI.
