    What’s all the fuss about AI & copywriting?

    It seems that all the email lists I’m on can’t stop talking about AI and copywriting. Are you finding this too? (Or maybe it’s just me on too many copywriting lists!) I find it a bit fascinating. It’s like the next big thing in tech and copy – ChatGPT (GPT = Generative Pretrained Transformer – hmmm sounds very techy.) People are likening it to some kind of copywriting second coming or doomsday scenario. Saying things like… – OMG, There won’t be any jobs. – There will be a massive firing of writers. – Businesses will fail if they don’t get on board with it. You will lose out on not being up-to-date…

    Does this ever happen to you?

    Sometimes I sit at my desk, staring at my three computer monitors, wondering if everyone who has a business online struggles with the same issues… Like today, I’m trying to stay on top of my “subscriber” email box, so it doesn’t get to 12k emails ever again. Thank goodness for my new assistant, who’s been helping me keep it around 300 or so unopened… Before you jump ahead in thinking that my “Subscriber” inbox is out of control and how do I answer emails, etc.… You need to know that this email box is for all the products, services, newsletters, and lists I buy or subscribe to. So when I’m writing…
