PR & AI

Research from OpenAI and the University of Pennsylvania argued that 80 percent of the US workforce could have at least 10 percent of their tasks affected by the introduction of GPTs, the series of popular large language models made by OpenAI. They also found that around 19 percent of workers will see at least 50 percent of their tasks impacted. GPT exposure is greater for higher-income jobs, they wrote in the study, but spans across almost all industries.

PR was among the industries that will be most affected or “influenced”.

I’ve been experimenting with ChatGPT in writing media pitch letters.  It’s a game changer.  In a few seconds, it composes a pitch letter that normally takes hours to write ✍🏻, edit and redraft.

What surprised me was how ChatGPT focuses on the strengths of the company “story” .  The end results were pitch letters that mirrored my own pitches but actually improved upon them !

ChatGPT & God

 I asked ChatGPT the following question:

“Is Artificial Intelligence a God?”


Here’s how it answered:


“No, AI (artificial intelligence) is not a god. AI refers to the simulation of human intelligence in machines that are programmed to perform tasks that would normally require human intelligence to complete. While AI has advanced significantly in recent years and can perform many tasks more efficiently than humans, it is still a tool created by humans and is not capable of possessing supernatural abilities or transcending the limits of its programming. Therefore, it does not have the qualities or characteristics that are typically attributed to a god.”
