15 years ago id have figured this out in my sleep....

I dont need detail, just a steer on the right approach. Probably obvious to someone who knows....

I have a standard form document with lots of alternative sentences in each paragraph.. At present, to create the variant i need each time, i must delete the bits i dont want to leave the bits i do.

This must be automatable with either drop down boxes, or by filling some form that generates the right versions based on tickbox answers. What is the sensiblevapproach??!

Have you tried asking chatGPT? It is the kind of thing it excels at. I just plugged your question into it and it came back with 3 possible methods in seconds. I have no idea if any of it makes and sense, but it might do to you.

I am a software developer and I have recently started using Copilot - which is based on the ChatGPT LLM. It's amazing some of the stuff it can do. I got it to write a liquid map for me yesterday (which anyone who works with these will know are horrible to write!). By hand it would take me a few hours to write one, test it, correct the mistakes etc. Copilot wrote it in seconds once I'd told it what I wanted. I then had it generate test cases for the code as well.

Saved me about 3 hours work if I had written by hand. Really powerful tool for developers. I guess I'll be out of a job in a few years time :(
