This is what ChatGPT's real use case is. I will never write another cover letter.

There are now companies that use AI tools to screen CVs and cover letters.

So you have an LLM generating the letter and another LLM reading it to extract the key points.

What a wonderful time to be alive /s

Please at least proofread it's output. It's painfully obvious when I get cover letters that were not proof-read. I had one cover letter a couple weeks ago with a font change for the main body, and p multiple "AI weirdness" lines.
