ChatGPT likes me better-er

By
Real Estate Agent with Jameson Sotheby's International Realty

I enjoy using Microsoft Copilot, but I have to admit: when it came to creating my caricature, ChatGPT was much kinder to me than Copilot was. Chat let me keep more hair, for one thing, and didn’t make me look quite as cartoonish. Vanity wins again.

Both programs are incredibly powerful and can seriously elevate your writing, but Copilot feels far more user‑friendly and a lot less restrictive. The free version of Chat has a pretty tight cap on how many times you can use it — for both graphics and text — and I ran into those limits fast. I barely got a few graphic attempts in before it politely told me I was done for the day. Copilot has limits too, but they’re higher, and in my normal use I haven’t hit them yet.

So for everyday writing and experimenting, I’ll keep playing with Copilot. But when I need fancy graphics — especially the kind where it’s important that I look good — I’ll wander back to Chat.

And yes… Chat made the banner, too.

Alan May  You look great as a caricature.  I'm having fun playing with it too!

Yeah... while I liked the Copilot version.. it was goofy and a little scary.  Where the heck did all my hair go?

Hi Alan- I agree, this one looks a lot more like you...at least the you I see in your profile photo and when you join us at our Zoom calls. I'll have to give it a try. 

 

I returned because I had to try it. I got even more wrinkles and a big mouth. (no comment)

You should keep with it Alan, your caricature is spot on, and you look like a REALTOR that folks want to connect with.

Well, I look like a Realtor, at least.

I love your caricature - I'm going to have to try this again.

It's a bit more realistic, now.

This made me smile. Sometimes a little creative kindness goes a long way, especially when it comes to self-portraits. I like your balanced take on both tools. Each has its strengths, and knowing when to use which one is really the key here.

They definitely both have their strengths.
