Is it real, or is it Memorex?

The hottest tech news lately is the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to write blogs, marketing content, email responses, articles and even research papers. The consensus is that it does a pretty good job and can save you a lot of time in the process. In fact, it’s become so good that many are unable to distinguish the difference between being real or ‘Memorex’; a suitable metaphor for those that remember the days when first recording voice to tape.

Chat GPT has been in the headlines probably the most. A product of Open AI, Chat GPT is a cloud-based platform that responds to requests in a conversational way. I was so impressed by the reviews, I decided to try it out myself.

In this blog, I’m going to demonstrate the power of this new AI resource and let Chat GPT do all the work for me in writing this blog.

To begin with, I login to my OpenAI.com account (no fees) and enter the statement: “write a blog targeted to small business owners with non-technical skills, on how to use AI for writing blogs.

In moments the following blog appears before my very eyes.
