🤖 Microsoft unveils their AI PC…

Microsoft has introduced a new category of Windows PCs called Copilot+ PCs, designed specifically for AI capabilities. Here's a summary:

Copilot+ PCs are the fastest and most intelligent Windows PCs ever built, with powerful new silicon capable of 40+ trillion operations per second (TOPS), all-day battery life, and access to advanced AI models. They enable new AI-powered experiences like:

  • Recall: Instantly find and remember what you've seen on your PC.

  • Cocreator: Generate and refine AI images in near real-time directly on the device.

  • Live Captions: Translate audio from 40+ languages into English.

📫️ The details:

MORE DEVELOPMENTS

😱 A former senior Google employee claims the company's AI initiatives are fueled by a "stone cold panic" of falling behind rivals, rather than addressing user needs. Scott Jenson, who spent around 16 years at Google across multiple stints, says the projects he worked on were motivated by fear instead of solving real problems. He believes when tech giants are exposed as having "no clothes," they will be surpassed by upstarts with bigger visions.

🇰🇵 North Korean IT workers affiliated with the country's munitions program fraudulently secured remote software development jobs at over 300 US firms by using stolen identities of American citizens. This scheme generated at least $6.8 million in revenue for North Korea's nuclear weapons program.

💸 Using CustomGPTs As Revenue Drivers

When OpenAI released customGPTs, the first thing we thought about was crafting GPTs for specific use cases and then giving those GPTs away as a lead generation mechanism or selling them.

So here’s a quick guide on how we would go about doing this for our own GPTs.

  • Find data on what people are looking for. Start by looking at chat.openai.com, where you can find popular custom GPTs. Look for trends and popular tools.

  • Create a custom GPT based on your findings. For example if you know that people need help with hairstyles, create an AI hairstyle generator.

  • Set up a domain and autoresponder. You can promote your custom GPT through your website and collect leads through an autoresponder.

  • Promote your custom GPT. There are many ways to do this, including YouTube videos, Pinterest pins, and SEO.

  • Promote affiliate programs. You can find affiliate programs for products or services that relate to your custom GPT.

Protip: When you are creating a custom GPT, tell chatGPT to always end with something like “This GPT was created by example.com.” That way, people can click on your website to inquire more.

If you’re unsure of how to create a custom GPT, reply back to this email with GPT and we’ll create a step-by-step tutorial for you 🙂
