01 — FEATURED FEATURE

ChatGPT for Desktop - a more streamlined experience 🖥️

Until now, you've probably been using a web browser to access ChatGPT.

Did you know - there’s also an official App that can run on your desktop?

The App lets you do three things more easily:

1. Access ChatGPT from anywhere on your computer with a simple shortcut.

2. More easily attach a screenshot or file as part of your prompt.

3. Use the incredible “Advanced Voice Mode” to have a two-way conversation with ChatGPT.

The App is available now for free for both Windows and Mac:

03 — MICROSOFT COPILOT

Microsoft 365 Copilot vs Microsoft Copilot Explained 🤔 

A few weeks ago, we asked if people wanted more Microsoft Copilot content.

And the answer was an emphatic YES!

Starting today, we’ll be including examples using Copilot.

While occasionally we’ll give system-specific tips (like today!), in general, Mosaic Swift is focused on skills that work for any major AI system.

Quick Tip: Two Types of Copilot Explained

One thing that confused us when we started using Copilot is there are actually two different things called Copilot:

• Microsoft 365 Copilot: a paid version that gives access to your Microsoft files and information. It operates within your Microsoft 365 world so it is generally more secure.

• Microsoft Copilot: a free and public version of Copilot with similar features to ChatGPT.

04 — BOOK SUMMARY

Top Takeaways from Simon Sinek’s “Start With Why” 👀 

When it comes to pop business books, it doesn’t get much bigger than Simon Sinek’s “Start With Why”.

Initially popularised via a 2009 TED Talk, Simon shares his belief that successful leadership starts with a “Why” - i.e. a purpose, cause or belief.

If you haven’t read it, a great way to get the core concepts is using a summary from ChatGPT.

05 — FOR FUN

What does ChatGPT know about you? 🖼️ 

If you’ve been using ChatGPT for a while, you’ll notice it starts remembering things about you.

(We covered ChatGPT Memory back in April - see item 2 here)

A fun way to see just how much ChatGPT knows about you is using this prompt:

Prompt:
Based on what you know about me, draw me a picture of what you think my current life looks like.

Here’s what ChatGPT generated for each of us!

Ngā mihi,
