If you’re all in on Web3, but missed the news on AI.

Here’s a 2 minute recap on the latest updates to start your week.

🧵👇 1. Microsoft Stock Price All Time High 📈

Microsoft’s share prices are now up 44% this year off the back of their heavy investment in AI.

If you think that’s intense, NVIDIA is also up +198% this year alone.

People say if you’re not using ChatGPT plug-ins, you’re getting left behind.

But I didn’t know how to use them.

If you’re like me, this is how you get started in 2 minutes or less.

(I'll also show you how to connect ChatGPT to web browsing in 3 clicks)
🧵👇 Earlier this week, I was doing research and my co-founder said to me:

“Just use a ChatGPT plugin for that”

And this was how I felt:

If you were here in 2018, would you have bought CryptoPunks?

Most investors missed out.

I went through every CryptoPunk tweet from 2018 to find the patterns that set them up for success.

(And how to catch the hidden gems in this NFT bear market)

Here’s what I found.

🧵👇 Okay, so let’s start by flashing back to 2018 ⏳

If you’ve been looking for a Web3 side hustle,

That you can start with zero experience,

And start generating revenue immediately.

This thread is for you.

🧵👇 The best businesses do two things:

1. Solve a problem
2. Take advantage of a gap in the market

This business does both.

Let’s start with the gap in the market.

Ai can now read minds.

Scientists have used GPT-4 combined with an MRI to read human thoughts with 82% accuracy.

This is the most concerned I’ve been since learning about Ai.

Here’s everything you need to know.

🧵👇 Before getting into it,

These findings came from a study conducted by the University of Texas.

Most people try to make money in a bear market by flipping sh*tcoins and rug NFT projects.

And most people get burnt.

But the real winners of Web3 are making money predictably without risk.

These are the 3 ways to get PAID for working on what you love.

🧵👇 Before getting into it.

I know you don’t have a lot of spare time.

So every opportunity here is something you can start as a side hustle,

And grow into full time opportunity.

Ai video is now on iPhone.

You can now record yourself,

And turn yourself into a marshmallow human with the click of a button.

Here’s how:

🧵👇 If you’ve missed it, Ai video is blowing up.

Just last week NVIDIA teased its first look at text to video Ai.

This video was made by just typing:

“a storm trooper vacuuming a beach”

More NFT projects are about to die.

Projects need revenue,

And there isn’t enough attention in Web3 alone for most projects to thrive.

But there’s an untapped revenue opportunity that your favourite project can start using right now.

🧵👇 Before getting into it, we have to start with an important mindset.

A project succeeding isn’t just about releasing more NFTs and influencing price action.

It’s also about creating a sustainable revenue model to grow longterm,

So that it can provide that value back to holders.

I’ve written over 150+ threads,

Gaining me 20,000+ followers in the past 6 months.

(7,000 of those came in the past week alone).

You don’t need to write 150 threads to grow, you just need to use this formula.

🧵👇 1. Ride the news cycle

Last week I wrote 3 threads about Ai in the 3 days following its release.

These threads got me 7,000+ new followers in less than a week.

🧵 (1/10)

I've seen a lot of people talk about "prompt engineers" as the biggest job that Ai will create.

But it won't be a mysterious oracle person in a company called a prompt engineer.

It will more likely go down like this:

🧵👇 Let’s look at the example of an accountant.

Before 1952, accountants did book keeping work by hand.

Then IBM started to roll out computers that made their lives 100x easier.

Today, accountants use Quickbooks & Xero to get more work done in half the time.

Eventually rolling them out across both platforms

And how to get it. This thread is for you.

🧵👇 Getting a job with an NFT project starts with a specific mindset.

It’s not about ‘getting a job’

It’s about finding a ‘gap’ that you can make an impact in.

And proving that you can make that impact.

And one thing feels super clear to me.

For the first time ever, I feel like I’ve truly found my ‘zone’
