(Read time: five minutes) - Fun fact: I never change this.

One way or another, it sounds like Apple will use someone else’s AI to power iOS 18. I cannot decide if I find that weird or not. The biggest and best technology company on Earth with endless piles of cash cannot build its own AI?

They reportedly met with Google (and discussions continue) and are now meeting with Open AI. It sounds like someone will power Apple’s next iOS, and it’s not Apple.

How would Steve Jobs feel about that?

Latest News.

🔗 US Air Force says AI-controlled F-16 fighter jet has been dogfighting with humans

My take: Tom Cruise in Top Gun vs. AI-controlled F-16s, who you got winning that one? The future of war is going to be nuts.

🔗 Zuckerberg says it will take Meta years to make money from generative AI

🔗 The Coca-Cola Company and Microsoft announce five-year strategic partnership to accelerate cloud and generative AI initiatives

My take: I expect every Fortune 500 company to go as all-in on AI as possible over the next few years. What does this mean for human employees? It’s pretty obvious.

🔗 Generative AI could soon decimate the call center industry, says CEO

My take: This article says, “There could be "minimal" need for call centers within a year.” Do we think AI will take over that quickly? If it’s better for the customer, I am good with it.

Today’s Tip: Create Better Messaging With AI’s Help

Explaining complex things like concepts and products is not always simple. The best way to simplify messaging is to find the simplest way to explain something. For some, this means figuring out how you would explain something to a fifth grader. In today’s case, you will describe something to a time traveler from the year 1800. Stay with me here.

Here’s your prompt to edit use often:

A man time travels from the year 1800 and arrives in 2024. Explain SEO to him in a way that he could easily understand.

The output is excellent and should help you explain any topic easily (so long as you make the prompt as tight as possible with any information).

Try it for yourself, and let me know how it goes for you!

Imagine you've just stepped into a grand library that houses an endless collection of scrolls, each containing different pieces of knowledge and information. This library is not in any one place but is accessible from anywhere at any time, without moving physically—this is what we call "the internet" in 2024. Each scroll in this library is similar to what we call a "website," a collection of pages that provide information, goods, or services.

Now, imagine you're looking for the best apple pie recipe in this vast library. The challenge is, there are thousands of scrolls and you don’t know where to start. Here, we have something like a librarian, but this one is magical and called a "search engine." When you tell this librarian what you’re searching for, it instantly finds the scrolls that most closely match your request.

Search Engine Optimization, or SEO, is the craft of making your scroll (website) easy for the librarian (search engine) to find and likely to be presented to those seeking the knowledge or products you offer. This involves using the right words that people commonly use when asking about your topic, organizing your information clearly, and ensuring your scroll is widely recognized and referenced by other reputable scrolls.

SEO helps your scroll stand out among countless others in the library, increasing the chances that the librarian will recommend it more often to visitors, thus bringing more readers or customers to you. This is vital because the more frequently and prominently your scroll is presented, the more people will read it, similar to how a well-positioned and popular stall in a market attracts more customers.
