News: AI-generated image wins famous photography award 🗞️

In the early ChatGPT days, we all did it:

Sending AI-written texts to friends or relatives just to tell them:

“HAH this text was AI-written and YOU couldn’t tell”

Last December, the German photographer Boris Eldagsen decided to take this experiment to the next level...

...and he sent this AI-generated photo to the renowned Sony World Photography Awards:

Then, last week, his AI-image won the photography competition.

And Boris was like:

So he admitted the image was AI-generated and refused to receive the price.

Ballsy move, and it kinda started an identity crisis for Sony’s awards.

Also...

It shows yet again that AI creatives have reached human level, since even an elite-level jury couldn’t tell the photo was AI-generated.

So when It comes to your business, don't be afraid to use AI to create content, research or help you to explore ideas.

Your brain + AI = A better duo than peanut butter & jelly

Prompt: Create a proven pricing structure 👁️‍🗨️

99% of solopreneurs waste time overthinking their pricing.

This prompt helps you set a reasonable price for your services based on the value you provide to your customers:

Try it yourself:

I am an [WHAT YOU WORK WITH] and offer [OFFER] to [TARGET AUDIENCE, BE SPECIFIC]. My offer is [WHAT YOUR OFFER IS, IN DETAIL]. On average, my clients [WHAT TANGIBLE RESULTS YOU PRODUCE / HAVE PRODUCED FOR YOUR CLIENTS]. My unique selling point is [WHAT IT IS + CONTEXT].

Determine an optimal pricing strategy for my service using the Value-Based Pricing approach, and give me a recommendation for which price I should charge for my services. Be as specific as possible.  Don't explain the idea of what the Value-Based Pricing approach is.
