This is a cool use case. Just make sure you retain your own voice! If you read an AI-generated sentence out loud and think "I'd have said it this way instead", IMO you should absolutely then change it to be that way.

Understood and I do. I try to tweak it a little to my own style. But it helps write the hundreds of cover letters I’m submitting a day. Looking for work. This usually took me hours for just one submission. Now I can fly through.
