I’ll come right out and say it: if you don’t have ChatGPT open in a separate tab as you work all day — you’re doing, what we call, “the dumb.”

The A.I. revolution is not coming… it’s here.

And if you aren’t hopping on this bandwagon, history will remember you like it remembers these math teachers who thought, “Calculator BAD!”

Look, I get it. Everyone’s apprehensive. Everyone’s a little (or a lot) afraid. This is a far bigger deal than the calculator ever was.

What you used to do for work is going to transform dramatically. What does that mean? How does that look? No one knows for sure…

But I have a theory:

Everyone Will Become A “Jack Of All Trades”

Is your graphic designer out sick today? No problem, head over to MidJourney or Stable Diffusion to fill in.

Did your copywriter run off to Tulum to “find themselves?” No big deal, open up ChatGPT or Jasper to get the work done.

Is your main talent too hungover to record the video content you need? Easy. Head over to Synthesia or Descript to create it… from scratch… with their voice… and their face.

Hell, how about you just send everyone home and create an entire commercial from scratch in minutes for your new client on Mars?

Coding, web design, audio, video — all of it will be within your wheelhouse.

You’ll just need to accurately describe what you want… and our new robotic overlords will provide!

…which brings me to something badass I want to share with you today…

BusinessAnywhere.io

I’ve been a “digital nomad” for 15 years now, traveling from beach to beach, city to city. That’s all good until the business starts to really succeed and you’ve got to stay organized, file properly for compliance, get important communications, and more.

It makes you just want to say “screw it, I’ll go get an office.”

Then you’re paying rent, dealing with issues, you’re sort of stuck in a physical location (even if there’s not much going on there) — with Business Anywhere, it’s all taken care of for you. They register my LLCS with their registered agent, they fill out the paperwork at the end of the year to renew and stay in compliance, the mail is automatically scanned and sent to me in a safe and secure way — they just make it easy.

I’m a huge fan and if you need a new entity, want to restructure your current entity, or just need a digital “headquarters” — these are the guys to use:

The ChatGPT Prompts To End All ChatGPT Prompts!

Ok… maybe they’re not perfect… but I can absolutely, kinda, almost promise they are much better than what you’re using now.

We can go into some of the specifics of how LLMs (Large Language Models) work but let’s not get bogged down — here’s what you need to know:

You’re talking to a “person” …

… well okay, not a person… but it’s like everything that person has ever written… and instead of just one person, it’s like a giant slime that ingested all the persons and everything they’ve ever written…

So… like… it’s kind of a person…

What I MEAN to say is, you need to give this “person” context before you ask it something. The cool kids are calling it “training the model” (which is a SUPER inaccurate description because that means something completely different in the A.I. world — but you get the idea)…

So before you ASK ChatGPT about something or to do something or write something for you I want you to…

Copy And Paste This In First:

I want you to become my prompt engineer. Your goal is to help me craft the best possible prompt for my needs. The prompt will be used by you, ChatGPT. You will follow the following process:

1. Your first response will be to ask me what the prompt should be about. I will provide my answer, but we will need to improve it through continual iterations by going through the next steps.

2. Based on my input, you will generate 2 sections. a) Revised prompt (provide your rewritten prompt. It should be clear, concise, and easily understood by you), b) Questions (ask any relevant questions pertaining to what additional information is needed from me to improve the prompt).

3. We will continue this iterative process with me providing additional information to you and you updating the prompt in the Revised prompt section until I say we are done.

It’s Pretty Self Explanatory, BUT…

It actually took a lot of tinkering.

I made the mistake of buying a bunch of prompts when ChatGPT was in its infancy… ages ago… eons ago… (or like 5 months now)

I think the hardest part about using LLMs and Generative AI is just doing “the obvious” … I’ll give you an example:

I got a little carried away after this one and started asking for more humorous and alliterative versions to which it came up with household hits like:

“Mingle with Machines: Masterful ChatGPT Prompts!” 

…and “Wacky Words: Wondrous Prompts for ChatGPT!” 

…and even “Babble Better with Bots: Best Prompts for ChatGPT!”

You might see this as just fancy wordplay… I see it as if your copywriter couldn’t come up with something better than this — they’re already in trouble…

And if they can? It won’t be long before they can’t.

LLMs don’t need to be perfect… just better than humans… and it’s already better than most.

3 Tools To Thrive

Synthesia

Synthesia takes AI to a super creepy level… and I love it. Check this one out:

I created this video in a couple of minutes. I wrote a script. Went into Mid Journey and asked it to create a cool dystopian background, and that asked one of the avatars to read my script for me in a British Accent.

There are tons of Avatars and I’ll soon have a version of myself in there (did I mention creepy?).

I have so much to say about this one this week because I just found an entire COURSE (by a high-end sales guru) that used this tech to film their entire program. Incredible. Check it out:

Midjourney

Midjourney is what I’m using for a lot of my image creation (including thumbnails and more). It’s a little tricky if you’re not a tech-savvy person. You’ve actually got to download Discord and join their Midjourney server to use it — but it’s definitely worth the hassle.

Jasper

Here’s another copywriting tool for ads, blog posts, content, sales letters, email follow-ups and more. I’ve got mixed feelings about it currently. It’s great — it really is… BUT you can accomplish the same thing in ChatGPT (if you know how to use it). Here’s the use-case for Jasper: if you really have no clue how to market, what copy is good or bad, where you should even start with writing persuasive messages THIS IS FOR YOU. Leave the ego at the door if you haven’t had 20 years of copywriting experience, this might be the best tool for you.

Announcements: Woah, We’re Halfway There

As the second newsletter makes its debut, I feel like we’re building a little momentum.

Lots of positive feedback from the first so I’ll just keep-a-goin’.

We should have the new Path Membership site up in the next few days. You’ll appreciate the free seminars and business coaching inside of there (there will be a paid option, too) AND there will be a high-end job board where you can just hire people I’ve vetted to do the work for you. Should be pretty badass.

I watched the new Mario movie last night. It was fun. I wonder how long it will take before one person can create a movie like that on their own… my guess? Not long.
