In the ongoing iteration and re-iteration of what I’ve learned, how I communicate it, what I learn anew and how I convey it, we have another release.

As I’ve shared before I’m driven by a personal mission in life: to grow powerful people: to learn and teach so that others can better survive and thrive through understanding knowledge!

So, I’ve started playing with Chat GPT-3. You should try it out too. It’s been called the iPhone moment of AI. It may be. I’m going to be using it to help in nearly all my writing for as long as it’s free. I will be tagging any post that included help from Chat GPT-3 …
