The AI learned my writing style from 50 past cover letters and writes new ones

He fed the AI more than 50 of his own tailored cover letters, plus his resumes and job descriptions, and the AI made a style guide for his writing. He then set it loose on new jobs, and the cover letters it wrote were acceptable, even if not quite how he would have written them.

This only partly worked. Read what happened before you try it.

How it works

  1. He feeds the AI 50 plus of his tailored cover letters, resumes and job descriptions

  3. He sets the AI loose on new positions that need cover letters

Why it’s worth knowing

The AI did not start from a blank page. It learned his voice from more than 50 letters he had already written and worked from that.
