That answer above was generated by it, so at least it passes for normal conversation.

This one is not, just to be clear!

You can iterate in a response. I got to the one above by making a prompt and then asking it to "rewrite the last response in a less formal style."

You do have to acknowledge its limitations. It doesn't understand current events, politics etc. It won't understand niche pop culture references.

You can ask it to e.g. write a response in the style of a Reddit comment reply or in the style of a ten-sentence children's book or in the style of a newspaper article, which helps enormously with getting tone or cadence correct. It's often better to ask it a normal question and then ask it to rewrite the response in a particular style.

IMO it excels at summarising information. "Write a 600 word essay on the causes of the Hundred Years' War" or something. Or simply paste a lot of information and ask it to condense it into 200 words.

Worth pointing out it's only the free version, and paid tools which are far more capable also exist.
