This isn't just the scamming internet randos, it goes into pretty high level business consulting.
"We just hired a company that has never worked in our field who doesn't employ anyone who has worked in our field to tell us how to work in our field better than we do today, this should be great!"
They always act so shocked that the consultancy did them zero good after giving them a few months.
The consultants are literally a place to blame for mass firings or restructuring. Most of the time they recommend changes management wanted but couldn't say out loud since it would spook shareholders. It's dumb but it's how the majority of the consultancy grift works.
how do you suppose theyre making that 400k?
Lots of $20 blowjobs?
$400,000.00/$20pbj=200,000bj/31day month=645.16 bj per day/12 hr day= 54 blow jobs per hour to make $400,000.00 a month, this man really is hustling
mmmnyeehhh could be
The broker that my retirement account is through is pushing some new AI insights tool. The screenshots show an example of a conversation that essentially goes.
Q: "How can I reach my retirement savings goals faster?"
A: "Consider contributing more to your 401k from each paycheck."
People will actually pay money to have some slop chatbot tell them that they can have more money in their account if they put more money in their account. Preying on stupid or lazy people is an extremely lucrative industry.
Anyone who buys it deserves what they get.
And we the people deserve everything that the scammer gets out of the idiot, just so
400k/month copywriting? Bull fucking shit.
Even if that was a typo and they meant 40k/month, it's bullshit.
"from my tiny, 1 bedroom apartment...."
"No money down!". Snake Oil is still a thing in this complicated techno landscape.
Dude’s a copywriter and can’t use “it’s” properly. Grammar must be less important when you’re making 400k a month.
Scammers have been filtering this way for decades.
This is broing but it mkaes me $400,000K a munth an 90 present margarines
Copyediting.
Retiring after a couple months sounds pretty sweet tbh.
It's easy! All you have to do is figure out a way to automate an entire industry of professional workers. The middle class hates this one weird trick
1000% this guy just uses an LLM
"It's" is a valid contraction of "it has".
Edit: glossed over the other "it's"... doh.
Sure. Not here, though.
Reminds me of those ads where scammer pretends if you invest in some obvious scam you too will own a jet and a Ferarri just like him. If it was such an amazing way to make money the last thing they'd do is tell anyone else about it.
The word “journey” has been completely ruined by business idiots.
Ad: Send me 50€ and learn how to play the guitar!
If you send 50€:
"Thank you for the 50€, now don't forget to learn how to play the guitar."
... how... does copywriting... have ... margins?
What are you classing as expenses?
You need an AP Style Guide, and your brain, and working eyes and fingers and a keyboard mouse and computer.
Wtf are margins?
You have an ongoing regular cost?
... this is a guide on how to set up some kind of LLM to do your copywriting, isn't it?
Of course it is.
He's also accidentally claiming expenses in the realm of 40k a month. Even the most expensive llm don't need that.
It's possible he means "copyrighting" and is also an idiot.
Is the headline a reference to the smart move during a gold rush being to sell mining equipment instead of land claims?
I make over 73 cents a month staring at the sidewalk as I walk to work. With 3 easy payments of 59.99 I can show you how.
I have two things to say to you.
I once unexpectedly saw my username embedded in the ground while staring at the sidewalk walking home from work and ...
Once my cousin confused the salt and sugar while visiting my childhood home and accidentally sugared her spaghetti. I don't think she finished it.
You wouldn't want the answer, it's like, boring
If nothing else, that Louis Theroux documentary about the manosphere exposed how all this influencer crap is built on a bunch of exceptionally dubious finance apps, that make Bernie Madoff look like a legit business mogul.
They all talked about how wealthy they were, but none of them really seemed rich. Rich people aren't up at 6am editing YouTube shorts and putting in the right hashtags. They're all living on borrowed money, and you get the feeling that if any of them tried to step off the treadmill, there'd be no life left to go back to.
Basically the locals with flashy suits in fuckoff-nowhere central Africa, flexing for strangers who might believe they own two of anything.
Thanks to the internet, they don't even need gas in their clapped-out third-hand Bentley. It can sit in their garage that for some reason is also their living room.
With AI running rampant, I have to imagine copywriters have been decimated.
Got laid off last fall. SEO is already pretty much slop so it was the perfect industry for LLMs. It was already getting hard to find good content online because of all the garbage we were loading up with keywords to game search. Now with AI generating it 24/7 traditional search is just dead in the water.
Return-with-a-v for Yahoo! Directories.
Last night we were playing D&D and one of other players showed off a miniature character model he had generated with AI. "I'm glad I didn't go to school for 3D modeling", he says.
Guess what I took a bunch of classes for since the 1990s.
Whatever, my models all have more heart than slop. They can't afford me and I'm not making them free models anyways.
I know one recently laid off. AI wasn’t explicitly the reason but his next job seems unlikely to be copyediting.
