Is ChatGPT your new best employee?


Howdy Reader!

Have you ever had your email inbox explode?

Well, that's exactly what happened after last week's "Did OpenAI just kill Canva?" newsletter. (Stay tuned for more on that - I just was interviewed by the fabulous Kate Ahl from Simple Pin Media about this very topic!)

But right now, I've got some HUGE news that could change how we all work as creators.

Remember back in the day when we had to chunk up long text just to feed them into ChatGPT because it had a memory like a goldfish? Those days are officially over, my friend!

Sam Altman and the OpenAI crew just dropped some updates that will affect you as a creator:

  • ChatGPT now has a memory like an elephant - it'll remember your history, style, and business details
  • A supercharged coding upgrade that's leading the industry
  • Massive improvements in following instructions (if only my cat had this upgrade...)
  • Enhanced long-context understanding that's setting new records

Here's the thing that's got me thinking - I mentioned last week that I upgraded to the $200 level to get my slides done for Social Media Marketing World. I was planning to cancel after this month, but these new features have me reconsidering.

I mean, $200 a month for an AI assistant that knows your business inside and out? That's less than what we Texans spend on BBQ sauce!

Quick heads up - while these updates are currently only available through their API if you're using Magai, you've already got access! (Dustin added it practically before OpenAI finished their announcement - which is why I love Magai so much!)

So what do you think? Are these AI upgrades exciting or terrifying? Things are moving at what Spaceballs would call "Ludicrous Speed!"

Hit reply and let me know your thoughts. I read and reply to every email!

See ya around the interwebs,

Howdy Reader! Ever feel like you're shouting into the void on social media? Sure, the likes and comments are nice, but wouldn't it be better to have a thriving community of people who actually PAY to hang out with you? (Spoiler alert: It's totally possible, and I’ve got the guest who will show you how!) That's why I'm super excited to have membership expert Vincent Pugliese joining us on the show. Vincent has built some incredible communities, including his Unconference for Entrepreneurs, and...

Howdy Reader! Ever feel like you're wrestling with AI tools that just don't "get" you? Like watching Elaine from Seinfeld try to dance - there's movement happening, but something's definitely... off? 😅 I get it. We've all been there, copying and pasting prompts from YouTube videos, hoping they'll magically transform our workflow. (Spoiler alert: they usually don't!) That's why I'm SUPER excited to have my old friend Mike Allton on the show this week. Fun fact: Mike was actually there when I...

Howdy Reader! You know what's funny about conferences? Just when you think you've got everything figured out, our AI overlords throw you a curveball that makes your slide deck about as relevant as My Space templates. I just got back from speaking at Social Media Marketing World, and my head is BUZZING with all the amazing insights and innovations. I can't wait to share with you. This year was especially mind-blowing because they added their first-ever AI track. The amount of game-changing...
