This is a very different job. People who love writing will tend to be miserable spending their time with prompting and curating AI output.

But he loves Door Dash? Most people work for money - not enjoyment.

i love writing and i was miserable writing for pay

So 100 clients you have to bill and administer at $8/hr. You don't have to write it all out, but you do have to maintain all context of all your clients. Good luck at that volume.

But you won't do it alone, you'll have the most advanced AI next to you.

Doing what, exactly? Keeping track of time, finding new clients?

Writing is the easy part.

I'm being difficult now, I know. It's just that the solution is not always to scale up. It just won't work.

Does invoicing actually take more time per month than writing?

I'm not saying invoicing is easier than writing, what matters here is the human time it takes.

If the time you spend writing is reduced by 90%, then you'll have more time to take other jobs. But there's always a balance that needs to be reached.

I like this logic because the writer is probably better at prompting, editing and reviewing, so there's definitely added value. But surely there's too much friction involved in having 10x more clients (think invoicing, customer acquisition, etc).

You don't own ChatGPT output -- you can't legally sell it to others.

You also, by the services terms of use, have to source when something is partially or fully written by ChatGPT.

I think the ruling was that if it's transformative enough, you can copyright it.

So as long as you put your own twist 8n it, maybe you can own the work.

But I'm not a lawyer, so don't quote me on that.

As for the overhead, maybe. But it's worth the try. And you'll have more time, since most of the work will be done by the AI.

Psh. Details.

ChatGPT works 24/7 and replies to you instantly. Can they compete against that?

More likely scenario would be clients giving their 95%-complete text to their writer and asking to make some changes that they can't do with ChatGPT (for now).
