I don’t know about you, but ChatGPT is a normal part of my life. I use it to help draft long emails, organize notes, and expand upon thoughts multiple times a day. According to a recent study, just 14% of US adults have tried ChatGPT.

Insane, right?

🤖 My new favorite AI app - Adobe Photoshop Generative Fill

I have been an avid Photoshop user for years, and I am dead serious when I worried that generative AI would crush their business. Adobe subscribes to the saying, “If you cannot beat them, join them.”

Introduction Adobe Generative Fill.

I have seen impressive demos of this tool and have just begun testing it out. You can easily edit, add, remove, or expand upon anything you upload to Photoshop. It’s truly incredible.

I stumbled upon a Twitter user sharing expanded album covers using Adobe’s new tool, which blew my mind. You upload the album cover and have it expand upon the image with genuinely incredible results.

🚀 The power of Midjourney is fantastic.

I have been obsessed with underwater photos of dogs diving into a pool for years. Then I was lucky enough to meet a famous pet photographer and got to be interviewed by him! (That was seven years ago, I’m getting old)

I saw photos of dogs jumping into the water and being a weird Marvel fan. I had an idea. Could AI help me make underwater photos of anyone or anything? The answer was yes. So I tried people, animals, and different angle prompts. Every photo was amazing. So I had to put it to the test; I wanted to see Marvel Superheroes taking underwater selfies.

And boom, Midjourney crushed it!

Here is the prompt:

Closeup wide angle underwater upshot photo of [anyone or anything] underwater, flash, fast shutter, detailed eyes, detailed suit, photo by Annie liebowitz --ar 16:9  --s 750 --q 2 --v5.1

Amazing.

⭐️ My big thought of the day: psychology matters in business.

Marketing isn’t always easy, but it helps to understand how people think. After years of working for and alongside brilliant marketing minds, I compiled a list of ten psychological tricks to help you sell more products.

My favorite is The Halp Effect. Good impressions in one area can positively influence the opinions of others.

Everyone judges a book by its cover, whether you believe you should or should not.

Check out the thread and implement some of these into your business today!
