Not everyone started at the same time
According to a University of Twente study published in February 2026, 65% of Dutch adults use generative AI. Chatbots are the most popular use, especially among young people and the highly educated. The researchers see a growing risk of digital inequality.
If you started later than others, there's no need to rush. A few habits make the difference.
Habit 1: check what matters
In the same study, a third of users said they had received suggestions that later turned out to be wrong. Chatbots write fluently, even when they're mistaken.
So for anything that matters (money, health, official forms, dates), check the answer with an official source or a person you trust. Use the chatbot to understand and prepare, not as the final word.
Habit 2: start fresh in time
The longer a chat gets, the more likely it is to lose track of what you said at the start, or to go in circles. When that happens, don't keep pushing. Start a new chat and give it a short summary of where you are: the goal, what's settled, and the next step.
Handoff in Uncook writes that summary for you. In ChatGPT, click the Uncook icon and choose Handoff. You get a ready-made first message for the new chat. Copy it.
Habit 3: keep the essentials
A long chat is hard to reread. If you used it to sort something out, keep the result in a short form. Summarize in Uncook gives you the essentials of a chat, without the back-and-forth. It is free on one chat within its own length and daily usage limits; beyond those limits, the task cost depends on your plan and is shown before you start.
FAQ
Do I need to pay for this? For a chat, see the Handoff and Summarize boxes for account conditions and the allowance shared with AI Profile.
Does it work on my phone? No. Uncook is an extension for Chrome on a computer. On your phone, write the summary for the new chat yourself.
Which chatbots does it work with? Chats from supported AIs, including ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini.
We don't keep the conversations you bring. When you click Send to Uncook in the extension window, the extension sends the chat from your tab to our servers, encrypted, for up to 30 minutes, and we delete it as soon as your Uncook page opens it. What Uncook makes from it is kept as a task, for as long as our Privacy page says. Neither your chats nor your tasks are used to train AI models.
