Could you please tell me more about how you use it for this purpose?
My husband does small engine repair, and I’m curious if this could help him at all. Probably not, since the repairs are so individualized to each machine, but maybe there’s something you’re doing that we could learn from.
Its probably likely to not be as good a fit for your husband if he has individualized parts, repair methods, etc that need to be listed in a proposal. Your husband cant really substitute one part for another, but i do it all the time when plumbing so listing individual fittings up front isnt really done.
Mine usually begins with ‘help me write a proposal to tunnel X feet under a home and repair (insert suspected broken fitting/fittings)’ . After the first bid gets spit back, ill edit it, ‘change the price for XYZ to ABC and update it’, or mostly changing terms/definitions or verbiage.
Because its more of a general ‘i need to dig to X location, fix the problem, and follow all relevant codes and best practices’ it works out well for me. Im fairly good at what i do, so i can get a pretty good idea for how something is plumbed underground, but until youre actually getting the pipe exposed and putting hands on what is there, its guessing. Educated guessing based on experience, testing, and what the camera shows, but its still guesses, end of the day.
There is a part of chatgpt where it can remember things youve told it in the past. That comes in handy when referencing specific engineers i use, or local code authorities, etc, but that took some time to enter names, associations, etc.
My final bill/invoice is the more tedious one because that includes engineers reports (if applicable, esp when tunneling under a home), individual fittings/parts/items/lengths of pipe used, photos of found versus repaired. chatgpt is of no use there, no matter how bad i want it to be.
Its probably likely to not be as good a fit for your husband if he has individualized parts, repair methods, etc that need to be listed in a proposal.
This was the conclusion that we came to last spring when we started looking at it (because we were urged by some Business Incubator types who were convinced it was going to revolutionize all roles in all industries 🙄😂), but I had had this little lingering foubt that maybe we had just misunderstood it or not tried the right way.
Your explanation of your process perfectly demonstrates that it wouldn’t be at all similarly applicable for us, our use cases are wildly different. Thank you for taking the time.
This makes me see some ways it could help me with some home improvement tasks I’ve been procrastinating, help that I had never even considered seeking, so that’s super cool to know.
