Great place to get folks started thinking about this stuff. I absolutely love the ability to check for grammar and spelling errors instantly, and I further appreciate the ability to ask what the takeaway is. If an LLM gives me a very different summary than I think the piece is about, I know I have a lot of work to do.

Yes, Grammarly is much better for the fine brush. But when you start from an audio transcript, the text is so messy that Grammarly doesn't help at all.

Good point. I don't have that stage, so Grammarly serves me reasonable well…

Yeah, I use it too, precisely for that, the final edit. It's invaluable, nothing else is even remotely close.

A change that I always tell chatGPT to do is show me the text that they’ve changed in bold with the previous content in parenthesis alongside it.

That's clever! How often does it work flawlessly?

For moderately sized paragraphs, good enough

For long text chunks not so good. If you change it so it only bolds the text it is a little better.
