Four years ago I told my wife “I could make the address labels” she bought on Etsy. Although it would have been an hour project for me to locate the clip art and find a matching form. I think I could have done it. Well, yesterday she asked for me to make those labels. And thank goodness was for AI. I just took a photo of the current label and asked ChatGPT to make a .png file I can download. In less then ten minutes I was handing her the printed address labels and I have the template saved on a local drive. This is how I expect computers to make my life easier.
