Transcription

Chapter 1: What are the implications of ChatGPT introducing ads for free and Go tier users?

0.031 - 16.83 Jamie

ChatGPT just announced that its free tier users and go tier users are going to be receiving ads. So they're going to be targeted to the topic of discussion, the chat you have going. And some people are worried about this ruining ChatGPT entirely and AI.

Chapter 3: What opportunities do ads create for businesses using ChatGPT?

25.741 - 27.743 Jamie

Before we do, Jane, why don't you tell them about our school community?

0

28.33 - 42.887 Jaeden

Yeah, every single week, Jamie and I post a bonus piece of content in our school community on how we are growing and scaling our business with AI. The craziest thing Jamie and I are super excited about that we're doing right now is we're creating an entire course about vibe coding, how we're able, neither of us are developers.

Chapter 4: How can users effectively capitalize on the new advertising feature?

43.227 - 54 Jaeden

I've never written any code in my life other than like maybe putting some HTML tags on like a WordPress website because I was trying to like custom edit it. But I am not a developer in any way, shape or form. I've done marketing my whole life.

Chapter 5: What is the significance of organic ranking in conjunction with paid ads?

53.98 - 66.776 Jaeden

And in the last nine days, I have completely created a software, which is a clone of Spotify for Creators, podcaststudio.com. And it's a new project that I am working on to help me with a lot of my podcasting.

Chapter 6: How does SEO strategy play a role in leveraging ChatGPT ads?

66.796 - 86.23 Jaeden

Basically, every feature I wished every podcasting platform I've ever used had. I've been able to add it here, including things like audio enhancers, AI generated titles and descriptions, transcripts. timestamps for my episodes. There's like so many features that no platforms have. And I built them all into this for myself. It's amazing.

86.25 - 88.656 Jaeden

I'll probably turn it into a product where other people can use in the future.

Chapter 7: What lessons can we learn from past advertising trends on platforms like Google and Facebook?

89.218 - 108.032 Jaeden

In the meantime, Jamie and I are creating an entire course on how you, if you are not a developer, can create full software products, including the payments, you know, lovable, which is one of the main tools we're using, but there's other ones as well helps with setting up backends and logins and does everything you do not need to know anything about coding to create a full platform.

108.273 - 126.812 Jaeden

If you want to check out our course that we're building on that go check out the school community. It's $19 a month, you get access to all of those videos and over 60 other videos we've created on growing and scaling your business with AI. So yeah, we'd love to have you in the group. Go check that out. Okay, let's talk about what's going on with ChatGPT. I am actually so excited about this.

126.912 - 143.775 Jaeden

Jamie was right that if you search for, you know, like ChatGPT ads over on X, you can see a lot of people that are very upset. There's a post that came out from OpenAI that said, in the coming weeks, we plan to start testing ads in ChatGPT free in GoTiers.

Chapter 8: How can businesses prepare for the future of advertising on ChatGPT?

143.755 - 157.009 Jaeden

What's interesting to me about this, Jamie, is like free tier. I'm like, yeah, whatever. Anyone that's complaining about using ChatGPT for free and getting ads, like that's life, right? Like if you're on the free thing, you're going to get ads. What's interesting to me is that they have a new Go tier, which is $8 a month.

0

157.85 - 169.763 Jaeden

And maybe you get like a little bit more access, but you're also going to still get ads. So I don't know about you, but if I was paying $8 a month, I think that's the one thing I'd be annoyed by is getting ads at paying $8 a month.

0

170.755 - 189.102 Jamie

Yeah, I mean, I get that. I didn't know they had this Go plan. I've been on the $20 a month tier now for who knows how long. And I get, yeah, you'd have some frustration. Maybe there's going to be less ads on the Go tier. I don't really know exactly what you're getting for the $8 a month, do you?

0

190.145 - 202.783 Jaeden

The $8 a month, I think you just get more access, basically. So right now, the free tier, you don't get the best models. You don't get to generate a lot of images. So I think you get a little image generation. You get access to the top models, all that kind of stuff.

203.825 - 226.463 Jamie

Gotcha. Well, either way, I don't think people should be too torn up about this. It basically says that when it is going to serve up an ad, it's going to have it down at the bottom of your chat. So it's going to give you your... You know, it's going to maintain answer independence, it says, yet the ad will be clearly marked down below. So it's not like it's going to bake your...

226.882 - 239.858 Jamie

you know, a product or service into the answer. It's going to just put it down in its own separate thing below. So to me, that's not so offensive. I don't think the integrity of ChadGBT is going to be compromised by this.

240.278 - 257.082 Jaeden

Yeah, that's true. That was the big criticism. If you're watching on YouTube, I have pulled up on the screen like a picture of what this will actually look like. And if you're not, there's a link in the show notes where you can click on the YouTube video. But In any case, we'll describe it for all of our Apple podcast listeners. It is essentially a chat GPT feed.

257.162 - 276.232 Jaeden

And at the bottom, there's like a line at the bottom of your conversation. And then there's like Harvest Groceries sponsored. And it's like, check out this hot sauce. And there's like a little carousel you can swipe through of like hot sauce products. What I will say is in their screenshot that they've shared, the sponsored section takes up about 40% of the page. I'm not going to lie.

276.533 - 296.46 Jaeden

Well, you know what? I guess there's a little chat comment thing at the bottom. So let's say 30% of the page is filled up by this ad section. It's not like a small little link at the bottom. There's a title. It says sponsored. There's a little description. And then there's a full product slider. So I mean, I feel like if this was for...
