Should you use ChatGPT for blog post writing?
Alright.
A question on one of my favorite topics, which is AI tools.
I know not everybody here is in love with AI tools like me or sees the possibility, sees the optimism that's there.
But I invite you to keep an open mind for this segment if you're willing to and let me share this with you.
So the questioner asked me, I have seen the power of ChatGPT GPT and how it can be an ally in my business, and I can see how I can easily use ChatGPT to create 30 blog posts that are targeted to my ideal client, and that's related to my work so that I can have a blog really fast.
Yes.
Indeed.
Jackie ET makes writing blog posts.
You know, it cuts the time by at least half, if not, you know, more than that.
And you're wondering the questioners asking, what are the pluses and minuses of doing that?
Is it worth it?
So it's a really it's a good question, and I don't have a Well, okay.
My simple answer is, yes, getting more content onto your blog and on your website is helpful, especially if the blog posts are are responding to a market want, to responding to a market want.
meaning what audience want what are what your ideal clients want to read.
That that's the bottom line is the more content you have like that on your website, the better.
The better for search engine optimization, the better for word-of-mouth, and the better for people checking out your services and go, wow.
That's this is my person.
I wanna work with her.
I wanna work with them.
So the question now is, well, ChatGPT GB can do that real fast.
Why why not do that?
Okay.
So my answer to this is, you know, I use ChatGPT often.
for all kinds of things, like solving some some logical issues in my head.
Like, I know how to figure this out.
Right?
I had even emotional issues, you know, I last Chachi p p, I'm going through this thing, and I'm like, what are your thoughts?
And it comes back very, very courteous and very wise oftentimes.
Anyway, long story short, here I am going on my AI rant again.
But on the blog writing thing, I do not use ChatGPT to write my blog post.
Now you might be surprised because like GeorgeKao your content, you write a lot, and you use ChatGPT a lot.
What's wrong here?
I use chatcheapiti when I am when when I am I first use my own bring.
While I still have any left.
Right?
Like like, hello, dear humanity.
Before you use an AI creativity tool, 1st use your own brain.
And do do not lose the ability to do that because humanity will more and more, like, what's gonna happen with Chachi p t block post?
Let me just give you the context here.
Chachi p t makes writing block post so easy.
I mean, if you never tried it, you will be founded.
Please write me a blog post about this topic for this type of ideal client reader.
2 seconds later, blog post.
You can decide whether to use it or not.
Right?
Because it's so easy, there will be more and more blogs that will sound the same.
I have used ChatGPT p d so much that I can tell the language and the tone now of chatty.
When I see a blog post or social media post, I'm like, that's that's Chachi.
It's Chachi BT.
So it's gonna sound more and more the same, and we humans will develop an ear or an eye for that kind of blah language.
It's kinda like we have developed an eye for stock photos.
Do you know what I'm talking about when you see advertisements and stock photos, how do you how did you how did you how you know the stock photo, and not a natural shot.
You you happen to some things are harder to tell, but you can tell most of the time.
How?
The human brain's amazing.
You're just able to become sensitive to that.
And so we're gonna become sensitive to chat EBT like language.
A lot of teachers now are sensitive to student ChatGPT EBT language.
Right?
So what do I use chat EBT for?
I don't use it to write the blog post.
I 1st brainstorm.
Okay.
I'm gonna take and I don't have to take a lot of time.
I could just take 15 minutes per blog post to go.
here's a topic I want.
And by the way, if you don't if you can't think of topics, whenever you're stuck, whenever I'm stuck, That's when I say maybe I should use ChatGPT you p t now.
If I'm really stuck with, I wanna write to this type of client.
And I know my skills.
Of course, I know my skills.
I know what I want to do.
But what should I write about?
I'm I first spend 15 minutes.
That's that's always my role.
First spend at least 5 minutes, if not 15 minutes.
Just say, well, let me brainstorm.
Let me brainstorm the topics, and then Fine.
And then and then I can go to chat EBT and says, hey.
This is the kind of work I would love to do.
This is the kind of client I would love to reach.
Here are possible topics.
I would love to write about, can you give me 10 more based on this information?
And boom, within seconds, it'll give me 10 more.
And then you could decide, oh, well, Idea number 3, and idea number 7 is pretty good.
And you could tell it that.
You could say, hey.
Out of your 10 ideas, I like 3 and 7 the best.
And here's why.
And I really didn't like 4 and 5.
And here's why.
You you work with it, like, you work with a smart intern.
And then it and then you'll say thank you for for instructing me.
Now I'm gonna give you 10 more that are more in alignment with what you just instructed me.
Great.
You see?
So, Chachika, he can give you ideas forever.
as long as you keep instructing because once you guiding it like an intern, and then when you're writing the blog post, when I'm writing the blog post, same process.
I first take 15 minutes at least to say, well, let me just write what I can first until I get to a stuck point.
until I'm stuck.
And then when I'm stuck, well, I have a choice.
I can either go for a walk and come back and try continue using my brain.
It's a good exercise.
or, you know, I'm running out of time.
I I I scheduled an hour to to and I wanna keep to the schedule.
Good.
Well, then, Chachi, if you can help me flesh the rest of it out.
Hey, Chachi, BPT.
Here's my talk.
But here here's who I am, what kind of work I love doing.
Here's my ideal type of client.
here's the blog post I've written thus far, the draft, and then you can ask what you want.
Okay.
Because what I usually ask is, hey.
Can you give me 10 ideas that I might wanna also address in this blog post, but do not write it for me.
I always instruct it.
Do not write it for me.
because I I I I I I don't wanna get you tempted to copy and paste and and become Vanilla, chat, GBT language.
Right?
So I said do not write it for me.
Just give me 10 ideas of what I what else am I What other ten points might I say in a blog post like this?
I've given you the draft thus far.
And then boom.
Within seconds.
I hear 10 more ideas.
And, oh, I like the idea number.
know, 4 and idea number 9.
Okay.
Alright.
Well, then then I go back to my own human brain, so let me write it out.
Some people, like I said, they they they they just give it a draft.
It's alright.
Chat GPT.
I I've gotten a couple bullet points here.
Go ahead and write it for me.
and, you know, write it for this type of person and with this type of tone, go.
Seconds later, there's Chachi Bikis draft, and then they go and massage it into their own voice more.
So that's another way of doing it.
I don't like it's I I have a harder time with that because I'm too tempted to keep much of what what it gives me.
But you just have to remember.
Chat GPT is not some authoritative this is the right way of blogging or writing or whatever.
No.
No.
It's the average it's the it's the I would say it's the above average of the Internet.
Right?
It takes all of the Internet.
and it takes the patterns of on the Internet and go, well, a blog post like you've given me probably sounds like this and talked about this.
You know?
So it's quite average at the end of it.
You'll you'll you'll notice, especially as a specialist.
You'll notice that you know, like, for example, whenever I ask ChatGPT with you, hey, can you give me a marketing plan for this or teach me about joyful productivity.
And when it comes down, like, yeah, that's that's pretty average.
Thankfully, I still have a job.
George Cal can still come up with something better than this.
So as as a specialist, you will use it to help you expand your ideas, and maybe to edit too.
Because that a lot of people use it for that, they they they they finish with a draft.
that plug in the ChatGPT with you.
Hey.
Do you see any gaping holes here or any any grammatical changes I should make?
give me a table.
Give me a table format.
This sentence or this paragraph should be changed to this go, and then they'll do that.
So so Anyway, I I think that's enough.
I hope this is helpful.
Yeah.
And if you want more, a lot more of this deep dive and practice, I have a whole chat GPT course, so she can check it out.
GeorgeKao.
Alright.
Okay.
Thanks.
