That's very cool, and right now it's a good idea, but I strongly suspect GPT only looks clever and does a good job in isolation. If everyone starts using it product announcements will start looking very similar, and they'll lose a lot of their impact.

This is definitely the case with cover letters for jib applications. The ones written by GPT appear to be pretty obvious - my guesses could be wrong, but after seeing most applications not having a cover letter for years to most applications having one over the past few months, I suspect GPT is involved, and there's a distinct 'style' that seems to be showing up.

Using GPT could be the 'bootstrap ui' of product announcements. It looks great on its own, but put it next to a bunch of other companies and they all fail to stand out.
