🤖 3 JOB ROLES FOR CHATGPT PROS

ChatGPT was released on November 2022 (not even a full year ago). Now, people with “ChatGPT experience” are making eye-watering salaries.

Some of you reading this might be thinking "Damn, I missed the boat". But you haven't. Even though it feels like ChatGPT has been around forever, we're only just getting started.

Here are 3 career options for the ChatGPT wizzes out there.

1️⃣ Marketing Professionals

Companies today are actively hiring people with Marketing 7 ChatGPT knowledge.

Lasso MD is actively hiring for a Social Media Product Manager who has "Direct experience designing Chat GPT prompts for unique post captions".

They're offering a tasty $55,000 - $70,000 for those skills. The average social media manager in the US takes home $47,000, so those ChatGPT skills are worth getting.

2️⃣  Copywriters

Someone who can effectively convey a company’s intentions, through the art of writing, will always be in demand.

However, combine excellent copywriting, with great ChatGPT usage. Now you have an employee who can churn out much more content.

Slalom, a global consulting firm recently advertised for this exact skillset. Asking price? $80,000 - $100,000. With the average copywriter salary being $43,000, those ChatGPT skills are worth a few extra bucks!

They specifically requested:

"Familiarity with emerging tools for creatives, e.g. ChatGPT(AI) and Canva (Templatized Assets)"

3️⃣ AI Model Trainers

Tech companies worldwide are recruiting AI model trainers, who are familiar with ChatGPT.

You can earn up to $18 per hour at entry level, as seen in Crystal Equations job listing.

Now what does an AI Model Trainer do?

In the case of Crystal Equation, they are looking for a Data Labelling Analyst.

Essentially, you're paid to test the language model, trying to find security weaknesses. And in their own words: "design and execute probing dialogues, and provide feedback on the quality of the model and the probing methods."

💡AI-NSPIRATIONAL QUOTE OF THE DAY

"Doubt may knock at your door, but it's your unwavering belief in yourself that will kick it down. Stay steadfast on your journey."

Your daily pearl of wisdom from ChatGPT.
