Don't be afraid of AI!

My only fear is that from using AI to write content, through many iterations, the overall information quality will decline

Ai is currently fighting legal battles against copyrights and lawsuits, and if it losses, with a very high chance that it can lose it will be very much restricted in where it can scrape from. In years bloggers and website owners will probably start blocking Ai bots from scraping content from their sites, making Ai much less likely to give valuable and good responses; this is a double-edged sword.

I have seen many people being scared of Ai and it stealing their jobs etc.

Here's my take and why you shouldn't be afraid:

Legal problems/Moral problems(People hating Ai because it steals):
Ai is currently fighting legal battles against copyrights and lawsuits, and if it losses, with a very high chance that it can lose it will be very much restricted in where it can scrape from. In years bloggers and website owners will probably start blocking Ai bots from scraping content from their sites, making Ai much less likely to give valuable and good responses; this is a double-edged sword.

Do you really think Ai will replace Search Engines/And that Google won't be able to detect Ai, even if it does, why do you think you can't get traffic through social media, advertising, forums, and other ways?
People who think that Google or any other search engine that invests billions in their algorithms can't detect Ai generated content/Or won't be able to detect ai generated content very soon are wrong, heck even some dumb ai detectors that cost 50k- max 1m$ can detect it very easily I don't understand how people except google not to be able to. Google won't favor Ai content, the most that this feature will go to is have an ai chat along search engine that I think most people won't even use, as you can ask it "how to make money" but what will that chat respond? Everyone was making a big fuss about meta verse as well, and Facebook investing a bunch of cash in it, but where is it now? It completely went dead, just like NFTs. This is more along with Google being scared of what effect the ChatGPT will bring to bing even though there are small chances it will affect anything. Even if something pops out from Meta Verse, I don't see it doing so in the next 10 years, the same as ai. What's most important is you scale your income and have 3-5 steady income sources that can secure you, also, don't have all your cash flowing out from online stuff try having some offline stuff as well.

My recommendations on what Ai probably can't replace/won't replace any time soon:
YouTubers/Youtube Videos: Be it entertainment, tutorials, vlogs, or so on, I think Ai can't replace it, and Google won't allow it anyway.
Entertainment: Be it a funny meme page on Instagram/or being a streamer on twitch, I think entertainment can't be replaced.
Affiliate Marketing: You will need just common logic why i think Ai can't replace this.
Mail Marketing: I think anytime soon Mail marketing can't be replaced.
Influencer: Trying to become popular is a good thing as well, be it 10k or 100k followers on some social network can do the job, but always strive to have more.
Any sort of advertising: As in advertising, you mostly advertise to sell (Be it drop shipping/affiliate marketing or anything else), the reason being is that there will always be advertisements. That's just how the economy goes you just ned to always adapt to new advertising styles, and you can profit from advertising.
There are many other things that won't be replaced, and even things that you think will be replaced like (Content writers, Artists, Photo designers etc.) you are probably wrong, as they will adapt as well and content writers might even be paid more in future than now (As many leave the business and there might be a need of content writers in future it might become higher paying job as Ai will never be 100% accurate, at least i don't see it 100% accurate in next 5-10 years 100%).
Offline stuff that you can invest in:
Owning land/apartments, houses or anything of the sort is great, running a shop is great, especially something that people will always need like a food store (No one can survive without food). Running a gym is great (Low maintenance cost, high return and good passive income). If you don't have enough cash to do so, you can try buying stuff on second hand markets and reselling (One trick that i do is i search for offers where people urgently need money or are selling because they bought wrong, they just don't need it anymore and want to sell it fast)

The biggest challenge that ChatGPT and other AI interfaces bring to the table is different from what you think.

They don't bring accurate content because we aren't there yet.

As the original poster pointed out, you must still fact-check their information.

There are also legal issues because if a chat-based AI interface gives content that is scraped from somewhere, who owns that information?

Are you scraping information, which according to international copyright law, cannot be copyrighted, or specific forms of that information?

Are you presenting ideas or ideas that follow certain formats?

These may seem the same thing, but they are not as far as the law is concerned.

There are legal issues, but I'm sure they will be ironed out.

The bigger challenge is transitioning from the current search model, where you enter a keyword and get a list of websites to a search interface.

In the current model, publishers and marketers like us in this forum stand to make a lot of money because when our pages show up as top results and people click through, they can see our ads.

The people can then do something with those ads that put money in our pockets.

This is how the system currently works.

Well, ChatGPT and other AI chat-based systems do away with all of that.

Instead, you ask a question, and the interface will retrieve an answer.

It does put citations and sources at the bottom, but people don't bother to click on those links.

So you are giving away information but get nothing in return.

This sounds familiar because we've had these discussions since Google started showing snippets.

People were up in arms because Google was scraping their content but giving them nothing back.

The unstated contract between publishers and search engines is that the latter will give the former traffic in exchange for information on the publishers' websites.

All of that goes down the toilet with ChatGPT.

Does this mean you should be afraid of AI? No, it means that you should be on your toes and must come up with ways to make money off that transition.

Remember that while many lost their jobs when people switched from buggies to cars, many also got new jobs.

This is one of those economic transitions, and as the old saying goes, "Adapt or die."
