Hi guys! Welcome to Episode 365 of the Wildly Successful Lifestyle podcast! This is a fun one especially if you like to be in the know! Make sure to share this and don’t forget to subscribe! Well we are well into the age of technology where AI is becoming more and more involved in our daily life. So Ive been playing around a bit with Chat GPT. Have you guys heard of that or used it? If you haven’t it’s time maybe. You may be thinking Im not tech or that just isn’t for me. UH think again. If you’re savvy enough to listen to podcasts, this is going to be something I really think you’re gonna like. And you’re listening to the Wildly Successful Lifestyle podcast so we wanna keep up to date, right? I mean this is really really cool. Whether you’re still in school, or a writer, or someone who has to give speeches, or even someone who wants to get cool ideas for a birthday party or present…this really is it. It’s basically a thinking conversational personalized Google on steroids and by that I mean, Google just searches for articles or videos related to the topic you search. ChatGPT will write an article FOR you using all the relevant information on the internet. It will come up with cool fresh ideas for a birthday gift, It will even write a podcast episode that isn’t half bad.
Really interesting stuff.
So I got on OpenAI.com which I will put in the shownotes. That’s the site where Chatgpt is found. I created a free account and I started asking it questions and it really was that easy. The first thing I asked is what do most people use it for? The answer came back as creative writing ideas, Personal assistance, unusual birthday party or gift ideas, programming, language translation, idea generation and the list would have kept going on and on but I stopped it…not bad…so I thought what can I ask it that would be fun…So I asked it to create an amazing title for a podcast episode on mindfulness….and it didn’t disappoint…you ready? Im going to give it to you…..what it came up with…..
“Journey to the Present: Embracing Mindfulness in a Chaotic World”
Not bad….I don’t think we are winning any awards but it’s a pretty good first shot.
So then I took it one step further and asked it to write an amazing opening for my podcast…are you ready for this? Here’s what it came back with immediately…
“Welcome, curious souls and wandering minds, to a realm where thoughts take flight and imagination knows no bounds. This is [Podcast Name], the gateway to a world of untold stories, hidden emotions, and captivating journeys through the human experience. Today, we embark on a voyage of words, a symphony of ideas, and a celebration of the extraordinary. So, fasten your seatbelts, open your hearts, and prepare to be enchanted, for the adventure begins now.”
Oh man. AI really is gonna replace me. But you see Im not really worried about that because AI as it stands today, is limited in that it doesn’t really have common sense. It isn’t capable of complex decision making and it doesnt have creative and emotional intelligence. it can’t reach your heart with a story about something it went through this week at work or at the gym or with the family, a story that you can relate to, a story that reminds you that you aren’t alone in the way you feel and that how you feel is normal. It can’t do that …YET. Of course, I have to add that.
I even asked a question about family to see how it would handle that and I would say it did it beautifully. I asked how to handle family dinners when you don’t like them. I thought some of the suggestions were really helpful like setting boundaries for yourself by honoring when you need a little time away for a moment by sneaking outside for a few minutes of breathing room or helping with the preparation, helping out might give you a sense of contribution and make dinner experience more enjoyable and finally bring a guest like a close friend, why not? I thought those were great. Sometimes, we may not want to bounce questions off someone else but you can pop them in here without feeling judged.
You know what I love about the really? Is I always feel with google searches you get a bunch of articles saying the same things. With ChatGPT based on how you ask the question you could get a thousand different answers that are really unique and you don’t have to read a thousand articles to find those answers, it does it for you. I know it seems lazy but it is the future and you’re gonna be on the cutting edge of it with ChatGPT…
Technology isn’t going anywhere and neither is AI and it’s not going to replace humans, I think it will just make us better.
So. Together, let us stride forward, hand in hand with AI, to create a more inclusive, efficient, and compassionate world for generations to come. I can’t even say that with a straight face, yes that was generated by Chatgpt. I can’t get anything past you guys…..
My challenge to you today is to try it…open a free account and start asking some of those questions you’ve been stumped over like what to do when your sister in law makes a passive aggressive comment…I think you’re gonna like it…share this with 3 people who always like to be in the know. I love you guys, I’ll talk to you in a few days.
