ChatGPT has been popping up in almost every corner of the Internet - and even at the parties that my friends throw. ChatGPT (which stands for Chat Generative Pre-trained Transformer) is an AI chatbot developed by OpenAI. The tool can be used to create AI art, to write papers, and even to create the hard-hitting content that Buzzfeed is known for. We're definitely not even scratching the somewhat scary possibilities of the service, but it seems like every week we learn of a new use. This week, G…

It is hard to believe how many people can't craft a proper email . I didn't wholly learn the art and science of professional emailing until I was a junior in college, and who knows where I would be if I didn't take particular classes that taught me that. I'll give you some general tips if you're an amateur emailer. Don't be overly wordy. You won't sound cold if you cut right to the chase, trust me. Don't thank someone in advance for something they haven't agreed to do. Use a simple sign-off at…

Getting down to it

What did he expect?

Always good to put your plans to commit wage theft in writing.

What's causing the Adderall shortage right now 👀

I have never been discriminated against on the ground of being blonde. A blessed bottle of bleach touched my scalp for the first time when I was twenty, and I've been addicted ever since. Being blonde has gotten me nothing but compliments and a couple of wild assumptions that it's natural, which is absurd considering the brown caterpillars that are my eyebrows. "Dumb blonde" is one of those playground insults. It can be exceedingly hurtful to kids who are called that, but kids usually grow out…

Monday woes

“I think I’m looking forward to cracking up. I hope I can, you know, totally crack up. I haven’t cracked up in a long time.” Child actor Jake Thomas said these words when asked, “What are you looking forward to most about this film?” while on the red carpet for Osmosis Jones. When they say "from the mouths of babes

I'm going to come out and say it: Loving what you do (for work) is a luxury. But even if you're a statistics enthusiast or a strategy geek, chances are you don't want to spend all your time working. That's where having a work/life balance comes in. The concept, to many, is pretty novel. It's long been fashionable to spend long hours working in the office or from home, putting in the extra time because your bosses, for some reason, expect you to be available around the clock. There's a reason th…

“Quiet quitting” is one of those phrases that's wiggled into our vernacular seemingly overnight. Initially, quiet quitting was when employees would slack off at their jobs, essentially waiting to get fired. S

It's not that complicated

If you're beyond bored and hungry while waiting for lunchtime at work every day, these memes are for you.

We're sad to report that the boomers still don't understand that things have changed in the past fifty years. It's as if nothing has happened outside of their lived experiences. “I made $10 an hour in 1970 and bought my own house by the time I was 30! If I did it, so can you.” You can try and explain to grandpa the concept of housing price inflation, or that $10 in 1970 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $77 today (which would be an annual salary of $148,379), but there's a strong chanc…

Listen, there's nothing inherently wrong with a parent asking their adult offspring for rent money, but if that kid decides to move out as a result, the parents can't get mad. In the case of redditor u/LetterheadMaterial93 , it's not like she wasn't contributing around the house. In fact, she and her siblings pulled their weight in chores in exchange for a roof over their heads. But when OP started buying nice things for herself with the money she earned at her job, her siblings started getting…
