ChatGPT Helps Man Launch Business in 24 Hours
Who wouldn't love to make lots of money in a short time? But the question is: "How?"
For Jackson Greathouse Fall, all it took was a conversation with ChatGPT.
On March 15, 2023, Fall tweeted that he gave GPT-4, the newest version of the artificial intelligence (AI) chatbot, a budget of $100 and one job: turn it into as much money as possible in the shortest time possible.
Fall told the chatbot — which he named "HustleGPT" — he was its "human counterpart" and would do everything it said, as long as it was legal, and didn't require him to do any physical work.
Fall was told to first buy an internet domain with a catchy name and a cheap hosting plan.
This cost him under $40.
Soon, Fall was running Green Gadget Guru, an affiliate marketing website that posts content about sustainable products.
Fall used Dall-E — another AI bot created by the same company — to make the logo, and HustleGPT created the code for the website.
Later that day, the first content was released: an article about sustainable kitchen products, written by the chatbot.
Fall also spent $40 marketing on Facebook and Instagram, as advised by HustleGPT, and by the end of the day he said he had received $500 from investors.
Three days later, Fall announced that the chatbot had allowed him to employ people to work for Green Gadget Guru.
Fall inspired others to use ChatGPT for their own business ideas — with many sharing their experiences on Twitter using the hashtag "HustleGPT."
However, Maggie Harrison, writing for Futurism, notes that the site does not seem to work well, and said it's strange that a chatbot would want to hire humans to write for it. She wonders if Green Gadget Guru is actually as successful as Fall says it is.

Discussion
What are your thoughts on Jackson Greathouse Fall's story?
I think it's worth a try.
Since GPT has been launced not so long ago, using GPT for business is considered an early market
Of course, the affiliate marketing business model may be saturated, but if i run it steadily, there is a chance of sucess. If I use GPT, it seems like it can be sustainable with minimal effort
Would you be comfortable relying on a chatbot to start your own business?
It may be difficult to say that relying on GPT for business is comfortable, but there is no other way for me to minimize my time and costs except for this method. Therefore, even if it fails, I think it is a low-risk way.
Have you tried out ChatGPT or Dall-E? If so, how did you find them?
I have never heard of 'Dall-E' but I am aware of(familiar with) 'ChatGPT' and I use it quite often.
The first time I learned about it was when a YouTube streamer introduced it.
I use it a lot especially for my work and studying english
What impact do you expect AI to have on businesses in the near future?
It seems that people's work styles will change
Specailly, instead of obtaining information through keyword-based Google searches, people will switch to searching by asking questions in a raw foramt to GPT.
In addition, it appears that with the help of AI, tasks such as summarizing large amounts of data or access materials in other languages will become much easier.
Are you excited or worried about the future of AI?
I feel like it's a mixed bag
On one hand, I expect that with the help of AI, many innovations that human have been unable to achieve so far will become possible.
On the other hand, I am also concerned that AI could replace many jobs in various industries
