Copying and pasting formatting issues with ChatGPT
I’m sure you’ve tried this.
You’ve asked ChatGPT a question, got the answer you want and clicked the folder icon at the bottom of the answer so you could copy/paste into Google Docs.

**Title**
Content
**Heading Two**

How do you copy/paste from ChatGPT and keep the formatting?
The reason that your content is showing in **this format** is because ChatGPT answers in Markdown format and it doesn’t auto-update when you do a regular copy/paste into Google Docs.
The solution for this is to update the settings in your Google Doc so it can accept your paste and update the content to be properly formatted (like your own Google Docs Markdown converter).
