So I brought it back! 😁
Let me know at the bottom of this section if you’d like to see more business ideas in the next email

1. Start a Blog w/ ChatGPT

This is a great way to make money online using AI without showing your face

People are making $10,000’s writing content online and providing value to readers

Brainstorm Content Ideas

Have ChatGPT take inspiration from your competitors by giving it the best-performing articles in your niche. Then ask ChatGPT to brainstorm

Prompt: I write blogs about [insert niche] Here are examples of blogs from my competitors that are performing well

- [Blog Title 1]
- [Blog Title 2]
- [Blog Title 3]
- [Blog Title 4]
- [Blog Titles 5]

2. Sell Valuable AI Prompts

This is something I did for a little bit a few months ago when AI first started trending

People are willing to pay for useful prompts whether it’s on ChatGPT, Midjourney, or Dall-E

You can check out what people are selling and sell yourself on PromptBase

I recommend browsing PromptBase to get some ideas. Maybe even purchase some prompts to get an idea of how it all works

Personally, the most useful prompts I would pay for is Midjourney prompts

People have created some prompts for Midjourney that create consistant and unique characters. For example this..

I probably made a few hundred dollars when I did it

It just ended up not being worth it for me, but that doesn’t mean it won’t be worth it to you

📝 3 Articles You Should Know About

💬 Meta’s New Speech AI Is Too Dangerous For Public Release

Why learn a new language when Meta’s new AI can translate your speech in real-time for you?

What you need to know:

• Synthesizes speech in 6 languages for seamless communication

• Adapts and performs tasks beyond its original training

• Features like noise removal, content editing, style conversion, and more

• Supports text-to-speech synthesis and cross-lingual style transfer

• It's an impressive 20 times faster than existing models, outperforming single-purpose models through in-context learning

What's interesting is that, unlike Meta's usual practice of open-sourcing their AI developments, they've made the decision to keep the model and its code under wraps. The potential for misuse is just too dangerous to make it publicly available

I’m noticing a trend here of big tech holding out on new AI innovation because it’s “too dangerous”

I’m wondering if that is actually the case or if they are holding out for another reason

🏠 Airbnb CEO Says AI Will Lead Creation of ‘Millions of Startups’ Instead of Replacing Jobs

• Airbnb co-founder and CEO, Brian Chesky, believes AI will benefit the job market

• Chesky foresees AI driving the emergence of "millions of startups," despite potential job declines in existing companies

• Numerous business leaders have shared their perspectives on AI throughout the year

AI replacing jobs is one of the biggest concerns people have about AI

Brian Chesky (CEO of Airbnb) has a different theory. He’s saying that AI has allowed existing workers to improve their efficiency, and estimates that engineers for Airbnb would see a 30% increase in productivity next year without having to hire more on

If it’s not AI that will replace you. It’s someone using AI that will replace you

🔨 Workers Are Hiding Their AI Productivity Hacks

Employees are hiding how they use AI to increase their productivity and a professor at Wharton School suggests companies should encourage them to share their secrets

The professor advices companies to entice employees to share their AI discoveries by offering incentives like shorter workdays

The potential gains in productivity should make it worthwhile to consider this trade off

Apparently some companies banned AI due to privacy, legal, and bias concerns

One step closer to bringing us short work weeks
