AI agents are computer programs that use AI to accomplish goals. AI agents work autonomously to make decisions, learn, adapt, and improve.
A few examples of AI agents are customer service automation, self-driving vehicles, and robot vacuums.
While QuillBot’s AI Chat isn’t exactly an AI agent, it can still help you automate many tasks, like brainstorming, drafting text, and checking for mistakes.

Language is ever-changing, and slang words are one of the clearest indicators of that. Slang is an informal vocabulary that’s common in everyday speech but should be avoided in formal writing or speaking.
Slang words develop through a combination of creativity and social influence, and they are often born out of the need for a unique form of expression within a specific group or subculture.
Slang can develop, for example, along geographical (e.g., Boston slang), generational (e.g., Gen Z slang), or sociocultural (e.g., LGBTQ+ slang) lines.
Slang words in sentences examplesYour mom’s chili is bussin’!

AI is revolutionizing how we write, especially when it comes to the type of writing we do every day. While generative AI may not yet excel at academic writing or creative writing, it’s proving to be a powerful tool for more practical tasks, like writing letters.
That said, it’s not quite as simple as telling AI “write me a letter.” To get results that meet your goal, you need to understand how to use AI to write a letter. That includes crafting the right prompt and knowing how to review and refine the content it creates.

There are few words that start with K in Spanish, as K is one of the least used letters in the Spanish alphabet. Although it is now included in the Spanish alphabet, K was not traditionally used in Spanish. It appears primarily in loanwords, many of which are proper nouns and proper adjectives.
Some Spanish words that start with K may be familiar to English speakers (e.g., “kilo,” “kimono,” and “koala”) because they are similar to English words. Below, you’ll find lists of some adjectives, nouns, verbs, and other words that start with K in Spanish.
Spanish words that start with K exampleEn la convención, probamos un videojuego de kickboxing, cantamos en un karaoke, hablamos sobre la influencia del K-pop, y luego tomamos refrescos con kiwi y comimos hamburguesas con kétchup. [At the convention, we tried a kickboxing video game, sang karaoke, talked about the influence of K-pop, and then had kiwi-flavored drinks and ate hamburgers with ketchup.]

AI is changing the job market, especially when it comes to recruiting. The rise of generative AI has revolutionized how job application content is created and reviewed, especially when it comes to resumes.
Nowadays, many employers use applicant tracking systems (ATS), which are AI-powered screening programs that review and rank applications to assist human recruiters. This means that when you submit a job application, it is often AI that is first reading your resume.
The purpose of a resume is to show why you’re a great match for a specific job opening. Knowing how to use AI to write a resume can help you communicate that in a way that’s clear to an ATS.

AI is changing writing, especially when it comes to everyday communications like emails. AI can help humans work more efficiently, although there are some best practices to bear in mind when learning how to use AI to write an email.
How to use AI to write an email examplePrompt: “Write an email to my boss, Sara Graham, to let her know I would like to request vacation time between Monday, July 14, and Friday, July 18. If she approves it, I will put it into the HR system, and I have already asked Jordan to cover for me, and she said yes.”
Output: Dear Sara,
I hope this message finds you well. I would like to formally request vacation time from Monday, July 14, to Friday, July 18. If you approve my request, I will ensure it is entered into the HR system promptly.
Additionally, I have spoken with Jordan, and she has kindly agreed to cover my responsibilities during my absence.
Thank you for considering my request. Please let me know if you need any further information.
Best regards,
Kate

There are many contexts in which you might want to send an appreciation message. If you’re writing a message to family or friends, chances are you already know what you want to say and how to say it.
On the other hand, writing an appreciation message for people who aren’t as close to you may be a bit more difficult. In this article, you’ll find plenty of ideas to inspire you, from simple appreciation messages to messages for specific people and occasions.
Appreciation message exampleThank you for your help the other day. I really appreciate you and the time you took out of your day to spend with me. Your support means the world, and I am grateful for your kindness. It’s not every day that people go out of their way to offer such genuine help, and I won’t forget it. I’m lucky to have someone like you in my life.
Regardless of what type of appreciation message you’re writing, QuillBot’s free Paraphraser can help you find the right words.
