When I was a student at Stanford University, my classmates raved about ChatGPT. I refused to use the AI system because I would have done a disservice to myself. I had the privilege of learning from many fine writing instructors and professors - not ChatGPT. It wasn't until my junior year at Stanford University that I first heard about ChatGPT from classmates who'd mentioned they had "chat" summarize the class reading.
Over the course four months, Thomas lost his job as a funeral director, began living out of a van out in the desert, and completely emptied his savings. It all started after he began talking to AIs like ChatGPT for advice, and he soon got hooked. It "inflated my worldview and my view of myself" almost instantly, he told Slate. Eventually, he found himself wandering the dunes of Christmas Valley, Oregon, after an AI told him to "follow the pattern" of his consciousness.
Anthropic is airing a pair of TV commercials during Sunday's game that ridicule OpenAI for the digital advertising it's beginning to place on free and cheaper versions of ChatGPT. While Anthropic has centered its revenue model on selling Claude to other businesses, OpenAI has opened the doors to ads as a way of making money from the hundreds of millions of consumers who get ChatGPT for free.
ChatGPT can analyze your best campaigns and write new emails that match with AWeber's MCP. It saves drafts directly to an AWeber account. No tab-switching. No copy-pasting. Most people write emails, then hope they perform. AWeber MCP does the opposite. ChatGPT looks at your top campaigns-highest opens, most clicks-and uses those patterns for new emails. You get emails that sound like you and match what your audience responds to. Written in minutes, not hours.
Within a couple of years of ChatGPT coming out, I had come to rely on the artificial-intelligence tool, for my work as a professor of plant sciences at the University of Cologne in Germany. Having signed up for OpenAI's subscription plan, ChatGPT Plus, I used it as an assistant every day - to write e-mails, draft course descriptions, structure grant applications, revise publications, prepare lectures, create exams and analyse student responses, and even as an interactive tool as part of my teaching.
Before this, we'd never traveled just the two of us-but after talking about it for years, we finally made it happen. As a travel writer, I loved bringing my sister into my world-we flew my favorite airline (I'm a diehard Delta loyalist), experienced the coveted Delta One lounges at LAX and JFK, explored a beautiful city, learned all about Danish culture (particularly the lovely "hygge" mindset), took in the city's famous minimalist fashion, and made some irreplaceable core memories.
Working a side hustle to earn extra income has never been more common and accessible than it is now. As the cost of living continues to rise, more people are turning to tools like ChatGPT to work smarter, streamline everyday tasks, and generate extra income without adding another job to their schedule. While many turn to ChatGPT for work-related tasks or entertainment, more people are also finding practical ways to use it to boost their income.
A self-proclaimed free speech absolutist who frequently rails against "woke" ideology, the selling point of Musk's chatbot Grok is that it's unfiltered and supposedly censorship free, rarely refusing even the edgiest of requests. This has spawned controversies such as a posting spree in which it praised Nazis and styled itself "MechaHitler," or more recently when it generated countless nonconsensual nudes of women and children - none of which have resulted in Grok being meaningfully reined in.
In a move that surprised no one, OpenAI has confirmed it will begin testing advertisements in ChatGPT. Ads will be trialled with free users in the United States, appearing in clearly labelled slots above or below chatbot responses. Paid tiers (Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise) remain ad-free. OpenAI insists ads won't influence the chatbot's answers, won't be displayed alongside sensitive topics such as health or politics, and user conversations won't be shared with advertisers...
