My main issue with ChatGPT-like LLMs, is I never think of ways to use them, ways they can help me. Today, I thought to ask Claude how it can help. (ChatGPT’s Mac app crashes on launch for me, so I’ll use Claude until that stops – I assume it's a MacOS-beta issue, but we’ll see.) Here’s what it said in reply to my prompt: What kinds of things can Claude help me with? Give me a comprehensive list.:
