6 Businesses Affected by ChatGPT: How Solopreneur Can Stay Ahead Winning 

ChatGPT is a large language model that has been trained on a wide variety of text data to generate human-like responses to text input.

 

The AI tool can be used for tasks such as language translation, text summarization, and conversation simulation. It is based on the GPT (Generative Pre-training Transformer) model, which is a type of neural network architecture that is well suited for natural language processing tasks.

 

While some solopreneurs and businesses are still out of the raging disruptions by ChatGPT, the AI tool has already affected some.

 

And this has jolted entrepreneurs into worry about the future of their businesses.

 

You don’t have to be disturbed if this is you. You rather need to upscale and beat the tide.

 

I know the question on your mind now is, but how?

Just read on to learn about these 6 businesses already affected, and how yours can stay afloat as a solopreneur:

 

1. Educators and Course Creators

The first solopreneurs that have greatly been affected by ChatGPT are educators and course creators.

 

 Learners no longer need many services of course creators to acquire hard skills. 

 

Anyone can use the AI tool to get valuable information on hard skills such as copywriting, and web design in seconds. In fact, you can use ChatGPT to write basic contents and even task it to generate you programming codes for free. 

 

So, learners aren’t ready to pay anymore to get contents from Udemy for instance when they could freely get them from ChatGPT.

 

If you’re in this niche and you aren’t ready to quickly grow tick skin against AI’s intrusion, your business may get trodden afoot soon. 

 

This is because AI is going to get better at taking over average businesses.

But how do you stay uptight and keep winning?

 

The first step to stay relevant and ahead of  ChatGPT in this niche is to become a rare expert.

You have to acquire deeper insights that outweigh the database of ChatGPT. 

 

AI tools haven’t got what it takes to stay updated with recent data. So, getting yourself updated often helps you outsmart them, including ChatGPT.

 

If your area of expertise is Copyrighting as an educator for instance, you have to braze up to know its new technicalities and new trends in the niche. 

 

This is how you can become an indispensable voice and keep your audience coming back for more.

 

You also need to focus your contents on how to apply specific concepts in your niche.

ChatGPT can’t do this. So, your audience will have no other means than to always patronize your courses since they demonstrate how technical concepts can be applied to solve identified problems.

 

2. ChatGPT has Affected Content Writing 

Content writing is a lucrative industry of writings where you have different niches. These include blog posts, listicles, articles, newsletters and so on.

 

But AI has disrupted the industry so greatly too. The coming of ChatGPT has made it possible for even novice writers to produce quality writing forms in a matter of seconds.

 

Many marketing agencies now leverage AI tools to write their contents. 

 

Some premium AI tools especially Jasper AI can produce different content types for different platforms and purposes.

 

So, you aren’t going to thrive anymore in this niche except you strategize and outsmart AI writing tools. This is why layoffs seems to be unending trends these days.

 

And you too may find it hard getting clients to work for anymore except you step up your game.

 

What do you do to overcome this?

First step is to leverage ChatGPT.

Yes, use this tool to brainstorm topics quickly and research ideas faster.

 

Unlike the traditional ways of brainstorming and researching that takes a lot of time. 

 

You can use ChatGPT to make this process faster. And then write quality contents above the reach of any AI.

This is because it doesn’t write good contents focused on specific or unique keywords.

 

ChatGPT writes generic contents mostly. And this is where your superior knowledge comes to play.

 

So, you really need to grow your roots deeper in your field of writing as a solopreneur to outsmart ChatGPT.

AI tools including ChatGPT would get better. No doubt about this. And they are already separating great writers from mediocre and those with fluffs. So the earlier you start upgrading, the better.

 

Another way to differentiate your contents from those written by AI tools and stand out is to use storytelling to evoke readers’ emotions. 

 

Storytelling still remains a great technique to supercharge your contents as a writer. And it’s effective and helpful in outsmarting ChatGPT.

 

This is because it can’t really write great stories to evoke readers’ emotion.

You’ll definitely remain relevant and in the mainstream when you demonstrate your expertise in your contents using this technique.

 

This is how you can stay ahead of AI especially ChatGPT and win more as a solopreneur in writing industry.

 

3. Software Developers

Software developers are individuals who design, create, and test computer programs.

 

Solopreneurs in this field use programming languages and tools to build software applications for a variety of purposes, such as business, entertainment, and scientific research.

 

They often work as part of a team and may specialize in a specific area of software development, such as front-end development, back-end development, or mobile app development.

ChatGPT has disrupted this industry already.

 

AI tools especially ChatGPT now write correct and up-to-date software codes that can be used in some minutes to create software.

 

Some users already noted ChatGPT can handle both the back-end and front-end programming of softwares and others.

 

In fact, the tool can debug programming codes, write new ones or fix identified errors.

 This has posed serious threats to solopreneurs who are programmers and developers. 

 

Average developers could get laid off soon with no patronage anymore because of ChatGPT and other AI tools.

 But you can stay ahead as a developer and make ChatGPT.

 

And this is how:

You have to quickly learn prompts you can use to leverage ChatGPT in creating iterations and offer solutions to customer’s needs in seconds.

 

The tool can help you create variants of whatever codes you may need to offer solutions to customers’ pains immediately.

 

Your programming knowledge becomes advantageous in coding to meet clients’ needs.

 

You also need to learn how to use ChatGPT to debug codes quickly instead of continuing with manual debugging.

 

Fixing codes manually isn’t only exhausting but time consuming. So, using this tool will definitely help you have time to upscale and grow more in your niche.

 

There are programming languages some AI tools aren’t familiar with just yet. 

 

This is where you can also improve on your skills to outsmart AIs especially ChatGPT  as a solopreneur.

 

So, identify these programming languages and learn them. I know this could be so demanding to achieve. 

 

But you just have to double down and learn them to keep winning. These would keep you ahead of AI tools generally as a developer.

 

4. ChatGPT has Affected Personal Services

Personal services refer to services that are tailored to meet the specific needs or preferences of an individual.

 

Examples of solopreneurs in personal services niche are interior designs, travels planning, and architectures.

Other examples are: personal grooming services, such as haircuts, facials, and massages.

 

There are also personal fitness trainings, where a personal trainer designs and leads a workout plan for an individual.

 

Interior designs, travel planning and architectural designs are specific niches that have been disrupted by AI tools.

 

For instance, you can effectively use AI tools such as interiorAI to craft well outlined and appealing custom plans.

 

ChatGPT can also be used to plan events when you use the right prompts.

This is quite unprecedented and at the same time, threatening to creators in these fields.

 

They could get fired entirely from business by these AI tools if they fail to grow thicker.

 

Clients will definitely prefer using these tools since they’re faster and cheaper to use than hiring professional freelancers.

 

How can you beat the tide as a designer in this industry and stay up winning?

Again you just have to improve on your visual skills and upgrade deeply.

 

Improving on yourself seems the first step applicable to winning in any niche affected by ChatGPT and others.

 

Also, you’ve got to learn how to spend time understanding your customer’s needs and leverage AI tools in creating designs to meet those needs.

 

Using AI tools this way will help you achieve a lot in a short time so you can have time to learn new things to improve.

 

It’s also time to sharpen your editing skills as a designer so you can easily manipulate designs by AI tools and get excellent results to end your client’s pains.

 

This is how you can leverage the disruptive tools to keep winning in your industry as a personal service provider.

 

 5. Graphic Design

Graphic design is the process of visual communication and problem-solving using one or more of typography, photography, and illustration.

 

The tools used for graphic design include software such as Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and InDesign.

 

These programs allow designers to create and manipulate visual elements such as images, typography, and layouts.

 

Other tools commonly used in graphic design include drawing tablets and vector graphics editors.

 

There are now AI tools you can use to make beautiful graphics to meet your customer’s visual needs such that you don’t need the services of any graphic designer.

A good example of AI tool in this niche is midjourney.

 

This tool is free and effective in generating images and others.

 

Graphic designers who aren’t upscaling may have a hard time getting clients. So you have to do the needful to stay winning.

 

How can you do this?

Use this AI tool for faster turnarounds with clients so you can have more iteration to get custom designs for your clients.

 

This is your best bet for now since graphics design is tasking and takes a lot of time to get good results. 

 

So, use AI tools to get your work done easily and also have templates to quickly tweak for clients.

 

Again, you have to enhance your editing skills to edit templates effectively and quickly to meet customer’s needs.

 

6. Consulting Firms

 Consulting firms are businesses that provide expert advice and assistance to organizations in various industries.

 

They may offer a wide range of services, including strategy development, operational improvement, financial management, and information technology consulting.

 

Consulting firms often have teams of experienced professionals with specialized knowledge and skills, working with clients to help them achieve their goals and improve their performance.

 

Some consulting firms focus on a specific industry or sector, while others offer a more general range of services.

AI tools now answer business questions like a pro.

 

There are now AI bots that can impersonate renown experts in different industries to offer business advice to people in need of consultations.

 

You can for instance ask Elon Musk for business advice and get interesting outcomes.

A good example of AI tool you can use for this is characterAI

 

So, consultation firms have been affected by AI. And it has become very imperative to sit up if you’re in the industry.

 

Best way to do this is to acquire more knowledge and deeper sights on areas you cover as a consultant.

 

Also, you need to acquire AI expertise especially on how to use them to answer technical enquiries and meet clients’ needs.

 

Above all, AI tools including ChatGPT have come to stay as the next technology. And they’ll get better over time just as other technologies started small and thereafter grew better.

 

So, it’s better to start improving your skills in your niche to stay relevant. This is one of the ways that’s effective in every niche.

 

You can also study the weaknesses of any AI tool disrupting your industry as a solopreneur, and capitalize on them to upscale your business and stay ahead winning.
