Hello out there!
ARE YOU READY FOR DIGITAL MARKETING???
Good, well, here it is. 🙂
SEO & SAIO
- We’ve talked about how Bing Copilot leverages OpenAI’s ChatGPT models. Now, ChatGPT’s SearchGPT functionality is using Bing’s page index to fuel its results. Heads up – you may want to revisit Bing Webmaster Tools to be sure there are no indexing issues there.
- What will happen to art as GenAI gets better? We get an overhead view from TechCrunch. Here’s the lowdown: Yes, we need to establish protections for the work that exists. But, think about the possibility for AI to augment artists to bring fuller ideas to life. It’s a double-edged sword. We have to be cautious about getting too far off to one side without listening to ideas from the other.

Thoughts to Take With You… 💞
How many of us edit while writing first drafts? (You can’t see, but I’m raising my hand.)
If you have perfectionist tendencies like me, you know the process of writing, deleting, re-writing, then fiddling with it more. A brainstorm, in writing and beyond, should be viewed with a sense of non-seriousness. The first draft is not supposed to be the best thing beheld by humans – it’s a way to dump your ideas, so you can mine the gold later.
The next time you’re writing or brainstorming, I ask you: Can you allow the ideas to flow uninhibited before applying the filter of perfection?
Bye for now!

Genetics R(NA)turally Astounding P.S.
Don’t ask me how I get here, but I’m listening to Genome: The Autobiography of a Species In 23 Chapters by Matt Ridley.Â
While I don’t exactly understand everything in the book, it’s still so interesting to hear about the jobs genetics plays in our lives. (I would give examples, but I know I’d surely butcher the science.)
The moral of the story is: try reading/listening to something beyond your current interests. Who knows? You may spark a new interest!
