Openai ChatGPT 3 for E-commerce Businesses

What is Open AI?

OpenAI is an artificial intelligence research laboratory founded by Elon Musk and Sam Altman in December 2015. Its mission is to build safe artificial general intelligence (AGI) and ensure that AGI’s benefits are as widely and evenly distributed as possible. OpenAI focuses on developing AI technologies that are transparent, safe, and beneficial to all of humanity. The organization is heavily involved in research, development, and deployment of AI technologies and works closely with the academic and industry communities.

And what is GPT 3?

GPT-3 (Generative Pre-trained Transformer 3) is an autoregressive language model which uses deep learning to produce human-like text. It is the largest language model ever created, containing 175 billion parameters. GPT-3 was trained on a corpus of 45TB of text, including web text, books, and other sources. GPT-3 is capable of generating text that is indistinguishable from human-written text, and has been used to generate essays, code, translations, and more.

What are the General Domains Impacted by AI?

AI has had a tremendous impact on many different domains, including healthcare, transportation, finance, education, manufacturing, and more. In healthcare, AI is enabling faster and more accurate diagnosis of diseases, as well as providing personalized treatments. In transportation, AI is helping to reduce traffic congestion and increase safety. In finance, AI is helping to detect fraud and increase efficiency. In education, AI is helping to personalize learning experiences, provide personalized guidance, and assess student performance. In manufacturing, AI is helping to automate processes and reduce costs.

What are the key areas impacted by AI for internet marketers and business people?

AI has had a major impact on internet marketing and business. AI-driven insights can help marketers identify trends, target specific audiences, and optimize campaigns. AI-powered chatbots can provide personalized customer service experiences, while AI-driven analytics can help businesses better understand their customers and tailor their offerings accordingly. AI can also be used to automate tedious tasks such as data analysis, website optimization, and email marketing. AI-driven automation can help businesses save time and money, while also increasing efficiency and accuracy.

What are the best commercially available AI tools up till now for writing?

The best commercially available AI tools for writing are the Natural Language Processing (NLP) based tools such as Grammarly, Automated Insights, Quill, Rewordify, and Storywriter. These tools use machine learning algorithms to analyze text, detect errors, and make suggestions for improvement. Grammarly, for example, uses advanced grammar-checking algorithms to make sure that texts are error-free. Automated Insights uses natural language processing to turn data into stories. Quill helps users improve their writing with automated feedback. Rewordify helps to simplify words and phrases for better understanding. Storywriter is an AI-powered story generator that can help users come up with creative ideas for stories.

What about Design AI tools?

There are several AI-based design tools available, including Adobe Creative Cloud, Autodesk Generative Design, Figma, and Gravit Designer. Adobe Creative Cloud uses AI-powered features such as Sensei to help users with tasks such as photo editing and graphic design. Autodesk Generative Design uses generative algorithms to help users create unique designs from a set of parameters. Figm uses machine learning to make user interfaces easier to use and faster to prototype. Gravit Designer is an AI-powered vector design tool that can help users create logos and illustrations.

And how does AI impact learning?

Additionally, AI can be used to analyze student data and provide insights that can help teachers and administrators improve learning outcomes.

What Is ChatGPT & Why Is It So Special?

ChatGPT is an open-source natural language processing (NLP) model designed to generate human-like conversation. It is based on the Generative Pre-trained Transformer (GPT) model and was designed to be used in chatbot applications. ChatGPT is special because it is trained on millions of conversation examples and can generate natural-sounding responses to a wide variety of questions. It is also able to learn from the conversations it has and improve its responses over time. ChatGPT is an exciting new technology that could be used to create more natural and engaging chatbot experiences.

Can Openai GPT 3 be a great professional advisor?

OpenAI GPT-3 is a powerful language model that can be used to generate human-like text. While GPT-3 is capable of generating text that is indistinguishable from human-written text, it is not yet at the level of providing professional advice. GPT-3 has the potential to be used to generate advice and insights, but it is not yet at the level of accuracy and understanding required to provide reliable professional advice.

[00:00:00] Jason: there’s a tool that really caught people’s attention, and it is changing the nature of graphic art and image creation online. It has really changed how people think about what AI can do they didn’t ever think it would be creative.
[00:00:13]
[00:00:44]
[00:01:21] Jason: Three days ago, open AI released a revolutionary new chat bot that is literally life changing and taking the. By storm. Toby Luke, key founder of Shopify just tweeted out.
[00:01:32] This is insane. In this conversation, we’re gonna talk to you about what is happening with chat G P T, this new tool. Share specific examples of how it can help you as an e-commerce operator and just a person trying to figure things out and walk you through how to get connected to it. Michael, are you ready to jump into this Crazy
[00:01:55] interesting.
[00:01:56] Michael: Yeah, so interesting. I’ve been reading about this, thanks to you sent a couple of articles over and, it’s starting to feel like I’ve went into one of my, favorite science fiction movie. It’s particularly like the kind of Android interactions, right? Where Androids will say stuff like, I’m an Android and do not experience emotion, but they’ll say it in incredibly articulate human-like way, and that’s yeah, that’s the feeling that I’m beginning to get with this. Yeah, it’s crazy times. I haven’t really been diving into you, so you’ve been deep diving into ai. So give us a bit of a, your personal interaction with ai, Jason, because I know that it’s been a personal thing for you as a writer, particularly.
[00:02:27] What’s your entry into this stuff?
[00:02:46] Jason: Sorry, my. My Internet’s sketchy. I
[00:02:49] Michael: apologize. It’s alright. Do you wanna try turning things off and on again? Often seems to work. Can you hear me? I can, yeah.
[00:03:08] Jason: Are you with me? Yes,
[00:03:10] Michael: I
[00:03:10] Jason: am.
[00:03:11] Yeah. Sorry. Do I, okay. Let me just jump in or you might wanna re-ask your question and then keep us going here,
[00:03:18] Michael: Okay. Yes, if you like, can you hear me now?
[00:03:36] Just now what? Can
[00:03:37] Jason: you hear me? Yeah, I’m with you. I got
[00:03:40] Michael: you. Yeah. Is it worth restarting your route or your computer because, it is very slow at the moment. Sort of your video is very slow and glitchy looking, and it sounds like audio’s cutting out for you.
[00:03:57] Jason: Yeah. Is it that bad?
[00:04:00] Michael: It seems to be at the moment,
[00:04:04] Jason: Amer or my computer.
[00:04:05] Let me do.
[00:04:10] Hang on one sec. Hang on one sec. Okay.
[00:04:23] Can you hear me now? Can, yeah. How’s that? A lot more stable, I think. Yeah, my phone I think is the issue, so let me just, yeah, it seems to be okay.
[00:04:37] Okay. Let me do it this way. Old school on my computer.
[00:04:41] Michael: Yeah. Yeah. It’s better quality. Think.
[00:04:44] Jason: Okay. All right, cool.
[00:04:47] Michael: So you wanna just redo the whole thing to get flowed it? Yeah, do that better. Isn’t it easy, I think. Cool.
[00:04:55] Jason: Let me just get of.
[00:05:09] Okay, my phone’s gone. Cool.
[00:05:12] Michael: Okay. Let’s start.
[00:05:16] Jason: Here we go. Here we go. Lemme just, I can’t really control the camera angle, so if you can do that’d be helpful. Sure, I’ll do that. Yeah. Okay, here we go. Three days ago, open AI released a revolutionary new AI chat bot that is literally changing the world, and we’re really excited to talk to you about it today.
[00:05:35] Hebe Luke Key, the founder of Shopify, has just recently tweeted out, this is insane, this conversation. We’re gonna give you an overview of what’s happening in the AI space. We’re gonna talk specifics for e-commerce operators and how you can. Chat G p T to improve your business and life, and we’re gonna show you how to get hooked up to it.
[00:05:55] I’m open, right now in chat, G p t, and I can talk to the robot if you would like me to.
[00:06:04] Michael: I am, I’ve been reading some fascinating stuff about this and I’d love you to give the robot a prompt to tell us about chat, G b T. The article you shared with me was very interesting. We’re linked to it in the show notes, which, if you’re listening folks are at the e-commerce leader.com written by a human.
[00:06:18] Although actually, the truth is that we’ve been using AI to write the blog post for the last month, sort of me and the robot in conjunction. And that was prompted by you. So this is becoming part of everyday life, isn’t it? But it feels like this is a step change, a quantum leap, if you will.
[00:06:32] First of all, Jason, you are you are the one, you brought this up, you’ve been getting more and more deep into AI recently. What is it that’s prompted you to get into this? What’s your personal kind of connection with this whole business?
[00:06:42] Jason: I’m always intrigued by the new stuff, and that’s just my nature.
[00:06:46] And so I’m always early into things, I was early into Pinterest, for marketing purposes early into Shopify, early into Instagram. That’s the, just the nature of my personalities that be peaked, but curiosity wise into these new things. And I got into AI tools, over a year ago, at least when I started using Grammarly.
[00:07:06] I didn’t quite understand that it was an AI tool, but I just knew it was a helpful writing tool. And then other tools I started get exposed to and my most recent writing tool that I’ve been using is called PEPPER Type. And it’s a writing prompt tool or a helpful writing tool. It’s, AI. And, so I just started to get more and more clear on this, and then I heard the All in podcast guys talking about this brand new, chat, G P T.
[00:07:35] Tool and, I had to try it. And I am just mesmerized by this thing. Literally, I’m not exaggerating to say this was a life changing day yesterday and I spent two hours with this thing. And so that’s just my journey with it so far. And the chat g p t tool did just come out on December 1st for open beta and it’s the fourth as we record this.
[00:07:57] So it’s just been out for a couple days and literally the internet’s a storm with this thing. People are talking about how insane it is and what use cases exist and can obviously be generated from, using it. And so there you have it. That’s my background and happy to explain more. And I know this is a kind of brand new thing to some people or a lot of people.
[00:08:15] And happy to share basics and just general info.
[00:08:18] Michael: Yeah, so AI sounds for artificial intelligence, obviously it feels like one of those areas that there’s been a huge amount of hype about for a long time. , and yet the actual experience has been underwhelming. . What’s your understanding of AI and what’s different about this one?
[00:08:30] Sure.
[00:08:32] Jason: Yeah. And people have been trying to work on this for a long time now, and it has been this, slow growing area or not really slow growing, but just people have been exposed to it. Or you might say that there haven’t been practical use cases for. The, the tools that have been produced until this last year really, or year and a half, people were mesmerized by a tool called DO E, which is a graphic arts generating tool.
[00:08:55] And I’ll outline this in a formal way so you understand the lay of the land a bit here in a minute. But there’s a tool that really caught people’s attention, called Dolly, and, then Dolly two came out and it is changing the nature of graphic art and image creation online. And it has really changed how people think about what AI can do and how to talk about it, meaning that they didn’t ever think it would be creative.
[00:09:23] But Dolly Too has proven that. AI can be incredibly creative and work to make works of art that are masterworks and, it’s very fascinating stuff. So anyway, that’s, I think that’s why, people haven’t really known about this much because there hasn’t been an example or use case that they really cared about.
[00:09:45] But with Dolly two on the image side, and now with chat, G P. It is game changing and the world is gonna pay attention to this. Now going forward, in my
[00:09:54] Michael: It feels like, stepping into a science fiction movie somehow. Yeah. So what are the general, you mentioned images, I guess chat GPT implies it’s presumably more text based.
[00:10:04] So what are the general areas that we’re discussing here? Yeah,
[00:10:06] Jason: I think there’s really three big domains that I’ve seen, emerge in terms of the useful tools that you can get into. One is writing and that, as I mentioned, I, I used, Grammarly and then I used PEPPER type. And, but there’s also writing in terms of code, writing, and people are using these tools to perfect a Python code and to really, and code in general, but I, I’m not expert in that area. I don’t know how they do that, but I know that people are using, AI now to really write. Substantial amounts of code on the internet. And there are a lot of tools in that space. I’ll just mention a few and if you wanna Google around and find them. Jasper is probably the most popular, writing tool.
[00:10:47] People have heard of Jasper, cuz it’s really been commercialized. Pepper Type is the one that I use. I chose that cuz it was cheap and my dog’s name is Pepper and I thought it would be funny to have a robot, writing assistant named Pepper. And then I mentioned Grammarly. Copy.ai is out there as well.
[00:11:03] phrase.io, writer.me. Spelled r y t r dot m e, right Sonic Simplified Spin Bot. There are a ton of these tools because everybody has access to the base code that they can use to build these tools and everybody’s just commercializing. These tools in different ways on the writing side. And so you’ll see tons of these Jasper’s clearly cut a leadership position.
[00:11:28] And then Grammarly, I would say, is probably the biggest, tool, and I can talk about why that’s valuable for our work, if that’s helpful. But anyway, that’s the writing side. The second area is design and design side. You have, tools, like I mentioned, do E two. Stable diffusion is another one that’s blowing people’s minds.
[00:11:46] Design ai, icon eight, beautiful.ai. They’re a bunch in that space as well that are helping graphic artists and people who are writing are making images and that kind of thing really perfect their craft. And then the third domain, or the third big bucket is what I would say general learning.
[00:12:05] And really there hasn’t been a general learning tool that really did anything of substance. Four people prior to three days ago, in my view. Now, there were chat bots on people’s websites where it could, in essence, in that context, a chat bot for a company would consume your knowledge base tools inside your, help information, your FAQs, and it could just answer people’s questions.
[00:12:33] But it was super limited. It was just like one website. If you, and you went and you asked a question on that chatbot, it would tell you the answers in that very defined scope. But, chat G p T, what it basically did was it ate the internet circa 2021. And now you can ask it anything and it’ll tell you the simplified answer.
[00:12:55] So the way I’m thinking about this, Michael, is, and hopefully this is helpful for our listeners in the writing domain. The ais are eating bad writing and spitting out quality writing. in the design domain. They’re eating design prompts or ideas and spitting out masterpieces. And in the learning domain, they’re eating complexity and they’re spitting out simplicity and it’s revolutionary.
[00:13:26] It really, this chat G B T thing, I wanna go into deep today in this conversation because it’s. Compelling and it’s so brand new. I think we have to talk about it for our listeners.
[00:13:35] Michael: Wow. It sounds like you’re perfect employee or consultant really, doesn’t it? You go give it rubbish and it comes up with mastery.
[00:13:42] . Couple of ways that I’ve interacted with this stuff. I remember that the whole buzz about chatbots when I had one of my, an old friend, who’s an Amazon seller who’s trans transitioned into. I guess more, eight more software slash agency type offerings. And he was all about chatbots a few years ago, and I remember using them myself and using his software and other peoples and just feeling it was actually very clunky experience.
[00:14:01] As an interacting person actually. And, naturally it was so clunky and spammy that Facebook wasn’t very happy about that either. Whereas this feels already a very different order of, magnitude change there. Yeah. I think, couple of things that I’ve used by the way that if you are a listener and a reader of the eCommerce leader.com, in the last month you would’ve been reading a blend of me taking the outlines and notes that I’ve taken for of conversations and putting it into copy.ai and then editing it vigorously.
[00:14:26] I’m starting to use it because of a sort of time saving as opposed to, because I think it wouldn’t do as good a job as me. So I think, That’s one of the, simple ways that I’m using it is to create, things for seo. So ultimately for traffic and brand awareness. And the reason I’m using AI is to save some time.
[00:14:43] So that’s one of my sort of use cases. I’ve also used beautiful ai, funnily enough to do presentation to, one of your, challenge groups in past, in the past . Again, why, because it looks better than me, messing about on PowerPoint. Those are sort two use cases. One is, cuz I’m not very good at designing, it will do a better, cleaner job than me.
[00:15:00] And the other one is saving time. So what are your reasons that you are excited or what are your use cases for
[00:15:05] Jason: it? I’ll be honest, I think yest, yesterday was a tipping point for me when, I had access to the chat G p T and basically have access to this learning. That’s the way I would describe this is chat g PT is a learning tool.
[00:15:21] And Grammarly was cool to me as a writing tool and I did build a process around Grammarly for our business, basically with Grammarly, just this context. And then we’ll get into chat g p T. But with Grammarly, for example, I would write chapter and then, I have a writing assistant and I would ask her to, edit it just for general, general, writing based on her view.
[00:15:44] But then I also, once I got Grammarly, ask her to build it into her process so that she puts the whole thing through Grammarly. And Grammarly. If you’re not familiar, we’ll take a big paragraph or a chunk of your text and it will score it based on metrics that you tell it about, and it’s templated, drag and drop little tools, little sliders, and it will score it and it’ll say this chapter is an 82 out of a hundred.
[00:16:10] Then it’ll give you the prompts to fix it so that it’s a hundred out of a hundred writing. And so we do that every time. Now we do a book chapter or a blog post, that kind of thing. And it just tunes up every aspect of the writing. Grammarly was very helpful, but that wasn’t mind blowing to me.
[00:16:29] That didn’t rock my world, chat G p t has, that was just a productivity tool that was cool. But chat g p T is revolutionary. This is literally, this is gonna change the world. I’m not even joking around. This is as big as Google when Google came out, in my view. It’s very cool.
[00:16:46] Michael: And that’s another tool by the way. I realize that I’ve used, Grammarly and I guess this is a sort of, recognition of, to some extent we’re all using AI already, right? So I’m not saying that chat isn’t a step change, but it’s interesting to reflect that maybe it’s coming a bit more subtly.
[00:16:59] So we all use Amazon, which has an incredibly powerful ai, engine to try and work out what you should be shown in the search results, what else is gonna sell to you. , that kind of thing. Facebook serves an algorithm of what content’s gonna get clicks in TikTok as well. Google obviously has an incredibly powerful ai, like the original, not the original, but the most famous initial example as you said.
[00:17:17] , what else? And then, Grammarly I’ve been using for a long time as well. Yeah. Yost seo, we’re trying to optimize blog posts, for example. That’s a very useful plugin that will tell you, this is too long, this is too complicated. So it does quite a lot of sophisticated analysis. Yeah.
[00:17:31] Yeah.
[00:17:31] Jason: So none of that compares anything. None of that compares,
[00:17:33] Michael: okay. To checks. Let’s talk about why you have used AI up till now then, and how you are feeling that’s gonna change. Maybe that’s a better
[00:17:41] Jason: question. I think I’ve mentioned Grammarly was my use case.
[00:17:44] And then pepper type was also my use case. PEPPER type is very helpful as well. Pepper type has tools built into it that will, for example, if you give it three sentences and you ask it to expand the content, it will take it into a paragraph or two. Like it’ll just, it’ll expand on what you’re, writing.
[00:18:02] For example, in Pepper type, if you’ve got one good sentence and you’re like, I want to talk about this, but I don’t know what else to say. It literally with a push of a button will give you a whole bunch more logical, beautiful, well written. Content around that idea. So pepper type’s cool in that regard, but again, we just need to talk about chat G P T because it literally is, it makes everything else look like nothing compared to, how powerful this is.
[00:18:29] So let me jump into that and tell you about, what this experience to me is like using chat G B T. Imagine that you have, a writing prompt where you can ask the oracle of Delphi or the smartest person on the planet. Literally somebody who has, eaten the internet and all the data in it.
[00:18:51] And you can begin to ask them any question you want and it will give you. The logical internet, based outcomes. Now, you might say to yourself, is the Internet’s full of garbage? Is that really gonna be helpful? Let me just share a few domains. And Michael, I mentioned these in our show notes and, but happy to do others.
[00:19:12] I’m literally, have chat G B T open right now. But, the four domains I thought I’d mention was, some are business and some are personal. The first thing that I started using it for, and I don’t know why my mind went there, is the top of my question I had was how do I optimize some wasted land that I have on the back of our property?
[00:19:31] And, you might think that’s a really weird , set of questions to ask the all-knowing computer like the Wizard of Oz or whatever. But, I have this 13,000 square feet and I want to optimize it. And so I, I have basic questions. So for example, I ask it, what’s the largest shed I can build on my property in Yuba City, California without a building permit?
[00:19:56] Now that’s buried in the city building permit code. And I already looked and I couldn’t find it cuz it’s an obscure question and they don’t really want you to work without building permits. And so it literally, in just a quick response, said the building code permits you to build a structure up to 120 square feet without getting a permit, in Yuba City, California.
[00:20:17] And then I said, I started to go down the track of my thinking, which was how do I make the most profitable business on 13,000 square feet? and they said, it depends on where you live. And I said, I live in Yuba City, California. And then I started asking questions about what’s most profit? And it said you could rent it out for a cell tower, you could rent it to as agricultural space or you could start your own business.
[00:20:40] And then, so I said, what’s the most profitable business I could use to, around 13,000 square feet. It’s about a third of an acre. And, then they said, you can grow crops. And so I said, what’s the most profitable thing to grow? And I knew some already cuz I watched YouTube videos and I said, is growing mushrooms better than microgreens?
[00:21:00] And they said mushrooms is a better business, statistically because it’s lower, cost of labor and higher profit margin. And then I said, what about growing tilapia versus, growing mushrooms? No mushrooms is higher profit margin than growing tilapia. And then I said, what about coi?
[00:21:17] Growing coy as a breeder versus growing mushrooms. And nope, mushrooms still went out. And then I said, what type of mushrooms are the most inand in Northern California? And then it listed the mushrooms. And and I said, it listed the first type, it was oyster mushrooms. And they said, it said, it’s easy, they’re easy to grow and in very high demand.
[00:21:41] Then I said, what’s the second most popular sak mushrooms? Easy to grow and in very high demand, what’s the third most popular lion’s? Main mushrooms? And so I just went down this track of optimizing this space in my backyard. And this thing is just Johnny on the spot with all kind. Important knowledge based on the wisdom of the internet.
[00:22:02] So that’s one example. I’ve got several others I wanna share with you, but any thoughts on that, Michael? Or is your mind peaked in terms of London property and commercial use? ?
[00:22:12] Michael: Not really. No, I think if you asked, AI for advice about profitability in London, it would probably say going and buy somewhere else.
[00:22:20] I’m not sure I should ask it. Shouldn’t I? I’ve just asked it. How do I ask Jason G. Miles a smart question on podcast, and what it said is, you can ask Jason G. Miles about the most innovative technologies currently available for business and what advice he has for entrepreneurs leveraging those technologies to optimize their operations,
[00:22:35] Jason: which
[00:22:36] Michael: is very formal, but that’s more or less what I’m doing.
[00:22:39] So I guess I’m not learning that much from that, but I guess I. Tell me, what advice do you have for entrepreneurs leveraging these technologies to optimize their operations since the Oracle has spoken, what is your advice on that? How do we optimize our
[00:22:52] Jason: operation? I wanna talk about eCommerce, but I want to just make sure we don’t miss the subtlety here.
[00:22:57] In the first example, the subtlety is, in my view, two or three important things. One is this thing has eaten complex documentation and can summarize it very easily and quickly. Like in the past, if I wanted an answer to that question, because I’ve done this before, on prior places we lived, I would have to call the city permit desk or go downtown and ask the question, how big a shed can I build without getting a building permit?
[00:23:30] That’s a in-person conversation. Or you dig through their building code, which is, in many cities, hard to. To dig through. And so it, it’s such an instantaneous fast delivery of the content you’re looking for is really incredible. And then the other thing where my mind went with this whole question of how do I most profitably use this space is that it’s a weighing machine based on the statistical information of the internet.
[00:24:00] So that means, if I said to it, what is more in demand growing, golden lady golden finches, which are very cool birds, those are the really colorful little finches or koy fish. I couldn’t Google that. You can’t get a Google response to that kind of complex question. What is more in demand Now you could go on Google Trends.
[00:24:23] I’ve done all this stuff. You could, I know where to go to try to find a summary of that. And you can literally spend days or. Weeks trying to make sense of the data. And this thing, in literally one sentence says the higher demand item is koi fish more than lady, lady golden finch’s. That weighing machine of the imputed information inside the internet that is just impossible to extract is literally why this is like the oracle of Delphi and this is the smartest thing on the planet right now.
[00:24:59] Because of that reason.
[00:25:02] Michael: I guess the only thing that strikes me is you’d have to actually go and do the manual version to come up with a, some human, I guess test it, proof evidence that, yeah. Tests that, does it actually coincide with what I’ve already tested it, bro.
[00:25:13] Jason: I’ve
[00:25:13] Michael: already, you’ve already done that.
[00:25:14] You’ve already done
[00:25:15] Jason: that for us. Yeah, and it’s not perfect, but I will tell you this, that in term now, it’s saying, You don’t ask me a CPA questions. And I, my first response when I answer questions related to tax stuff, and you and I do this all the time, is we’re not CPAs, we’re not lawyers.
[00:25:33] Go contact your own personal thing. But here’s what we understand to be the reality. It’s the same with using chat gbt. You get the sense that it knows a ton, but you’d still wanna verify it. I would still probably, in my interactions, wanna make sure that the building code in Yuba City hasn’t changed.
[00:25:50] It did only eat the internet in 2021. So it’s not current in that regard, but you can test it in many ways. And my second example I wanna talk about is a really interesting use case as well. And it goes a little bit to this idea. I wanted to understand what amounts of information this thing has consumed.
[00:26:11] And how it’s consumed it. And, as it happens, I love Jesus and I’m a church guy and, I love going to, Bible studies and that kind of thing. And there’s a bible study app that I’ve used for a couple years now that, people told me about, and it’s called the Olive Tree Bible Study app.
[00:26:28] And it has the Bible in many versions, but it also has a thorough library of what you might call all of the classic and, contemporary, theology. Literature. And this is there’s many books like, Strong’s, exhaustive Concordance or a Greek Interlinear Bible, key phrase, tool.
[00:26:49] There are many complicated Bible study tools that go into ancient Aramaic and Greek and Hebrew, and they unpack the meaning and definitions of these words. They make connections that you would never in a million years understand you. You really don’t understand how deep that well is until you really start to sit with people who are like, professors of Bible and theology, and they start to point out these incredibly complicated and unknown to you details.
[00:27:19] So I ask chat, g b T, are you familiar with the Olive Tree Bible study app and all of its content? You know what it said to me? Yes. I’ve used a bible tree, olive app for several years now and know all of its information. . I was you have to buy all those tools. All the information that they want in the Auto Tree Bible study app.
[00:27:42] You add it on for $19, if you want to get TD Jake’s commentary on this or like different people’s, commentaries, but. Chat, g p t has consumed all of that information, and therefore I can have a conversation with it about everything I understand to be in the Olive Bible study app, which is, that’s saying I don’t even know what the, what is equivalent example.
[00:28:04] It’s like saying, I don’t know, it’s read every law degree book for a lawyer and in every nation of the world, it understands every law and every nuance. And the, these rabbit holes, this thing has gone down are insane. It’s just it blows your mind how much information this thing can, talk to you about and respond to.
[00:28:26] So that one is a really interesting eye opener to me because it’s not just, it hasn’t just consumed the top couple searches on Google. It hasn’t just read like Wikipedia. This is not cursory. Information. And that’s why to me, it’s so insanely powerful and why I’m so jazzed about it. Yeah.
[00:28:46] Michael: Wow. I think you just put your finger on what is different between a traditional kind of book type study. I don’t mean it has to be books, literally physically, it could be, internet based tools, but a traditional kind of deep study of something versus the internet based version of something.
[00:29:00] Cuz research has come to mean Google and that comes to mean the best at s Yeah. And the be best at SEO or Wikipedia. , which, apparently the accuracy level for Wikipedia articles that are very, are very, common subjects is higher than encyclopedia britanica. But for really obscure subjects is quite low as you would expect.
[00:29:17] Cuz not many people are gonna edit things about ancient ama. Actually, that’s probably not true. But there are some areas of knowledge that are too obscure, to have much input. And yeah, I, the thoroughness thing strikes me as well. I guess what you’re saying is you’ll basically saying, if I understand it, that it’s reviewed.
[00:29:32] Everything that is on the internet. And then it comes out with a very simple but very seriously evidenced level of answer. Like a really great lawyer or cpa. To your point, somebody who knows the tax code from 30 years experience will say yes. Meaning I have reviewed 30 years of this. And yes means actually, yes.
[00:29:50] So the co carp versus mushrooms versus whichever you were gonna do. Nope. Definitely not co carp, definitely mushrooms. I guess you can. I guess the thesis is that you can really trust that because it’s got deep and knowledge on it and it sounds like your little test of their background using your backyard.
[00:30:05] It’s come up trump’s so yeah. Wow. This really deep, I mean for me this feels a little bit like early adopter worlds for technology. Are algorithmic trading, for example, in the stock markets that’s been around for, generation or two now. Yeah. And it feels to me like, On the one hand, this is gonna wipe out a lot of jobs.
[00:30:25] And on the other hand, if you use it well, it’s gonna give you a huge edge as well. So it sort changes the entire game really of a lot of things. , everything. certainly

[00:30:35] Jason: marketing
[00:30:36] Wrapup: Hey folks. Thank you so much for listening to another episode of the e-Commerce Leader. We’ve certainly branched out quite a lot, broader than e-commerce today, but it’s all about internet marketing and tools and our interaction with technology, so interesting stuff. Certainly Jason’s massively bullish on there.
[00:30:53] Open AI G B T three. Having had a tiny taste of it myself, I’m certainly very intrigued and impressed. So will it take down Google or is it another fad or is it somewhere in between? My guess is that it is pretty big news. I’m with Jason on this. Certainly something you should check out yourself. Jason’s interest, obviously is primarily been many things, but among other things professionally writing, and I have to say that I’ve been using AI tools to create blog posts for, amongst other things the eCommerce leader itself.
[00:31:24] So it is certainly a set of tools, a sort of writing type tools is something that for all eCommerce operators could be. Takeaways for this would be possibly exploring using it to create interesting articles for Google seo. And if you run a Shopify business that’s straightaway usable for you.
[00:31:41] If you run an Amazon focused business you could still use it off. Amazon traffic is really powerful. Amazon loves it. So that is a couple of use cases straight away. Just to summarize what we’ve discussed today, writing or writing code is one of the use cases design. Is another one. And obviously that’s critical for e-commerce, beautiful visual arts and then learning as well.
[00:32:03] Certainly it’s something you need to go away and explore. Is it gonna be useful to you? I suspect it may change a lot of your workflows over time. Can it be an advisor? Interesting question. Certainly Jason has a lot of faith in it. I have not checked it out yet to that level. The truth is probably that is gonna come up with some wonderful ideas, but which you should, verify with your own research.
[00:32:22] I would suggest. Either which way this could be a game changer. Certainly a fascinating thing to check out. And as part of eCommerce it’s gonna be part of the conversation for the next while at the very least it looks to me anyway. So if you’ve used AI before, or if you haven’t go check it out.
[00:32:41] Open ai.com. I got an account myself within about a minute this afternoon, so very easy to do. And don’t forget, of course, if you enjoy this kind of content to subscribe to the eCommerce leader on the nearest. Podcast. The podcast. Pretty old technology, but it’s a kind of updated version of radio, which has been around for, oh, almost a hundred years now.
[00:33:00] Hopefully, like me, you love listening to people talk about things as much as you do reading, so that’s you. Don’t forget, subscribe, and thanks very much for listening to the eCommerce Leader as well.
