Read full transcript 8 segments
  1. in this video I'm going to talk through in this video I'm going to talk through eight opportunities to use chat GPT in eight opportunities to use chat GPT in eight opportunities to use chat GPT in your SAS and if you stick around till your SAS and if you stick around till your SAS and if you stick around till the end I'm going to talk through my the end I'm going to talk through my the end I'm going to talk through my thought process of when and when not to thought process of when and when not to thought process of when and when not to use new tech like this in your use new tech like this in your use new tech like this in your application and also how to think about application and also how to think about application and also how to think about opportunities to do so I'm Rob Walling a opportunities to do so I'm Rob Walling a opportunities to do so I'm Rob Walling a Serial entrepreneur with multiple exits Serial entrepreneur with multiple exits Serial entrepreneur with multiple exits I've invested more than 120 startups and I've invested more than 120 startups and I've invested more than 120 startups and I've written three books about I've written three books about I've written three books about entrepreneurship so chat GPT is all the entrepreneurship so chat GPT is all the entrepreneurship so chat GPT is all the rage if you're on Tech Twitter you may rage if you're on Tech Twitter you may rage if you're on Tech Twitter you may already be tired of it but chat GPT is a already be tired of it but chat GPT is a already be tired of it but chat GPT is a chat interface over the open AI project chat interface over the open AI project chat interface over the open AI project it's pretty amazing technology and it it's pretty amazing technology and it it's pretty amazing technology and it really shocked even folks in the really shocked even folks in the really shocked even folks in the technorati that this advancement came so technorati that this advancement came so technorati that this advancement came so quickly and I want to put a couple quickly and I want to put a couple quickly and I want to put a couple caveats to this up front there's not caveats to this up front there's not caveats to this up front there's not actually a way to interact directly with actually a way to interact directly with actually a way to interact directly with the chat GPT via an API you can interact the chat GPT via an API you can interact the chat GPT via an API you can interact with the AI model behind chat GPT one with the AI model behind chat GPT one with the AI model behind chat GPT one thing that I haven't taken into account thing that I haven't taken into account thing that I haven't taken into account with the the ideas in this video is that with the the ideas in this video is that with the the ideas in this video is that openai charges based on tokens based on openai charges based on tokens based on openai charges based on tokens based on the speed of the response and so some of the speed of the response and so some of the speed of the response and so some of these may not be viable just based on these may not be viable just based on these may not be viable just based on the cost to do them and lastly even the cost to do them and lastly even the cost to do them and lastly even though many of us are kind of tired of though many of us are kind of tired of though many of us are kind of tired of hearing about chat GPT and openai hearing about chat GPT and openai hearing about chat GPT and openai already most of the rest of the world already most of the rest of the world already most of the rest of the world has not heard about it and so if you has not heard about it and so if you has not heard about it and so if you have a customer base that is not have a customer base that is not have a customer base that is not constantly on Twitter monitoring the constantly on Twitter monitoring the constantly on Twitter monitoring the tech blogs and so on they're likely to tech blogs and so on they're likely to tech blogs and so on they're likely to be blown away if you are able to be blown away if you are able to be blown away if you are able to integrate this into your application so integrate this into your application so integrate this into your application so for the first opportunity I bet you for the first opportunity I bet you for the first opportunity I bet you think I'm going to suggest an SEO tool think I'm going to suggest an SEO tool think I'm going to suggest an SEO tool to create content for your blog or to to create content for your blog or to to create content for your blog or to rank for certain terms I think that's rank for certain terms I think that's rank for certain terms I think that's already a commodity tools like that have already a commodity tools like that have already a commodity tools like that have existed now for a few years and in my existed now for a few years and in my existed now for a few years and in my opinion the verdict is very much still opinion the verdict is very much still opinion the verdict is very much still out on whether that's going to work in

  2. out on whether that's going to work in out on whether that's going to work in the long term even if you can get some the long term even if you can get some the long term even if you can get some short-term gains I think there are going short-term gains I think there are going short-term gains I think there are going to be some headwinds to that as those to be some headwinds to that as those to be some headwinds to that as those things become commoditized so my first things become commoditized so my first things become commoditized so my first opportunity is not an SEO tool to opportunity is not an SEO tool to opportunity is not an SEO tool to generate content free website it's to generate content free website it's to generate content free website it's to think about how to build a tool for your think about how to build a tool for your think about how to build a tool for your existing customers to help them help existing customers to help them help existing customers to help them help themselves if you already have a SAS themselves if you already have a SAS themselves if you already have a SAS application anywhere your customer has application anywhere your customer has application anywhere your customer has to write something AI can create to write something AI can create to write something AI can create multiple suggestions to choose from and multiple suggestions to choose from and multiple suggestions to choose from and or edit so for example if Iran veed.io or edit so for example if Iran veed.io or edit so for example if Iran veed.io because you think about creating an AI because you think about creating an AI because you think about creating an AI video script writer to create the script video script writer to create the script video script writer to create the script in advance from the content that openai in advance from the content that openai in advance from the content that openai is pulling from if I still ran drip is pulling from if I still ran drip is pulling from if I still ran drip which was an email service provider we which was an email service provider we which was an email service provider we could easily skim an email and they have could easily skim an email and they have could easily skim an email and they have the AI suggest multiple different the AI suggest multiple different the AI suggest multiple different subject lines and in fact there's an subject lines and in fact there's an subject lines and in fact there's an existing tool out there that does it existing tool out there that does it existing tool out there that does it I've invested in them through tinyseed I've invested in them through tinyseed I've invested in them through tinyseed it's automata at buy automata.io they it's automata at buy automata.io they it's automata at buy automata.io they will take YouTube videos or other types will take YouTube videos or other types will take YouTube videos or other types of video content and blog posts and they of video content and blog posts and they of video content and blog posts and they will Slurp in the transcript in the text will Slurp in the transcript in the text will Slurp in the transcript in the text and use AI to create a LinkedIn post and use AI to create a LinkedIn post and use AI to create a LinkedIn post around that a Twitter thread email around that a Twitter thread email around that a Twitter thread email marketing content so subject lines and marketing content so subject lines and marketing content so subject lines and ideas like that and so this type of tool ideas like that and so this type of tool ideas like that and so this type of tool already exists and if you need it as a already exists and if you need it as a already exists and if you need it as a standalone obviously check out automata standalone obviously check out automata standalone obviously check out automata but in your app itself think about but in your app itself think about but in your app itself think about anywhere that your customer has to write anywhere that your customer has to write anywhere that your customer has to write something you can take a large piece of something you can take a large piece of something you can take a large piece of content whether that's audio video or content whether that's audio video or content whether that's audio video or blog post and you can turn that into a blog post and you can turn that into a blog post and you can turn that into a summary or another type of social media summary or another type of social media summary or another type of social media content internally it makes your content internally it makes your content internally it makes your customers more powerful right it levels customers more powerful right it levels customers more powerful right it levels them up and makes their job easier and them up and makes their job easier and them up and makes their job easier and thus they like your software more more thus they like your software more more thus they like your software more more and then you can even take this little and then you can even take this little and then you can even take this little tool this summarizer that writes a video

  3. tool this summarizer that writes a video tool this summarizer that writes a video script or that writes subject lines and script or that writes subject lines and script or that writes subject lines and you could make it a free tool and do you could make it a free tool and do you could make it a free tool and do engineering as marketing if you get engineering as marketing if you get engineering as marketing if you get inbound SEO links for this you could inbound SEO links for this you could inbound SEO links for this you could make this a separate tool that you could make this a separate tool that you could make this a separate tool that you could launch and get free traffic that you launch and get free traffic that you launch and get free traffic that you then try to monetize opportunity number then try to monetize opportunity number then try to monetize opportunity number two is using AI to draft cold emails and two is using AI to draft cold emails and two is using AI to draft cold emails and outbound LinkedIn Outreach a lot of outbound LinkedIn Outreach a lot of outbound LinkedIn Outreach a lot of startups especially SAS companies are startups especially SAS companies are startups especially SAS companies are sending cold email and cold LinkedIn sending cold email and cold LinkedIn sending cold email and cold LinkedIn Outreach to find new customers could you Outreach to find new customers could you Outreach to find new customers could you feed an AI model with your email feed an AI model with your email feed an AI model with your email enrichment info everything you know enrichment info everything you know enrichment info everything you know about a person and have it crank out a about a person and have it crank out a about a person and have it crank out a personalized draft email based on a personalized draft email based on a personalized draft email based on a template for every individual on your template for every individual on your template for every individual on your email list and today cold email and email list and today cold email and email list and today cold email and Linkedin Outreach is basically generated Linkedin Outreach is basically generated Linkedin Outreach is basically generated by a template and human personalized if by a template and human personalized if by a template and human personalized if at all and so to have ai be able to you at all and so to have ai be able to you at all and so to have ai be able to you know take a first crack at it it could know take a first crack at it it could know take a first crack at it it could save you a lot of time with your cold save you a lot of time with your cold save you a lot of time with your cold Outreach efforts and if you're already Outreach efforts and if you're already Outreach efforts and if you're already let's say you run a cold Outreach SAS or let's say you run a cold Outreach SAS or let's say you run a cold Outreach SAS or a cold out here reach a productized a cold out here reach a productized a cold out here reach a productized service I think this could be a really service I think this could be a really service I think this could be a really interesting internal way to save interesting internal way to save interesting internal way to save yourself and your team a lot of time the yourself and your team a lot of time the yourself and your team a lot of time the next six opportunities are Standalone next six opportunities are Standalone next six opportunities are Standalone ideas for SAS apps none have been ideas for SAS apps none have been ideas for SAS apps none have been validated I did try to start with validated I did try to start with validated I did try to start with problems though and not just do a problems though and not just do a problems though and not just do a brainstorm of what AI can do whether brainstorm of what AI can do whether brainstorm of what AI can do whether it's problems I've personally it's problems I've personally it's problems I've personally encountered or that I've seen teams or encountered or that I've seen teams or encountered or that I've seen teams or saw the product team have this issue saw the product team have this issue saw the product team have this issue developers support I started from there developers support I started from there developers support I started from there and came up with several Standalone SAS and came up with several Standalone SAS and came up with several Standalone SAS ideas the third opportunity is a custom ideas the third opportunity is a custom ideas the third opportunity is a custom knowledge base as a service and this is knowledge base as a service and this is knowledge base as a service and this is where a company could hire you to slurp where a company could hire you to slurp where a company could hire you to slurp in everything from an internal Corpus

  4. in everything from an internal Corpus in everything from an internal Corpus and then be able to ask questions about and then be able to ask questions about and then be able to ask questions about it and so specifically the use case I it and so specifically the use case I it and so specifically the use case I started with honestly is I would love to started with honestly is I would love to started with honestly is I would love to feed in all my essays from feed in all my essays from feed in all my essays from robwalling.com all my podcast robwalling.com all my podcast robwalling.com all my podcast transcripts YouTube video transcripts transcripts YouTube video transcripts transcripts YouTube video transcripts all of my books all the thinking even in all of my books all the thinking even in all of my books all the thinking even in my conference talks and put all of that my conference talks and put all of that my conference talks and put all of that into a corpus so I could literally ask into a corpus so I could literally ask into a corpus so I could literally ask it to outline a YouTube video as me or it to outline a YouTube video as me or it to outline a YouTube video as me or what's my thinking on reducing churn or what's my thinking on reducing churn or what's my thinking on reducing churn or to even outline a conference talk or a to even outline a conference talk or a to even outline a conference talk or a podcast and my use case is very likely a podcast and my use case is very likely a podcast and my use case is very likely a limited one but you know that there are limited one but you know that there are limited one but you know that there are companies that need internal knowledge companies that need internal knowledge companies that need internal knowledge bases to answer questions about their bases to answer questions about their bases to answer questions about their products or about stuff that's going on products or about stuff that's going on products or about stuff that's going on in other departments there's so much in other departments there's so much in other departments there's so much knowledge in a company that is hidden knowledge in a company that is hidden knowledge in a company that is hidden and unable to be accessed and I think and unable to be accessed and I think and unable to be accessed and I think there's really interesting use case for there's really interesting use case for there's really interesting use case for this one the next opportunity is to this one the next opportunity is to this one the next opportunity is to create a support tool for let's say any create a support tool for let's say any create a support tool for let's say any company that has live chat phone support company that has live chat phone support company that has live chat phone support or email support usually they have an or email support usually they have an or email support usually they have an external knowledge base and an internal external knowledge base and an internal external knowledge base and an internal knowledge base it could consume one or knowledge base it could consume one or knowledge base it could consume one or both of those and it could chat with both of those and it could chat with both of those and it could chat with customers in a way that's way better customers in a way that's way better customers in a way that's way better than the automated chat we have today it than the automated chat we have today it than the automated chat we have today it could create drafts of response emails could create drafts of response emails could create drafts of response emails and you could even use it as an internal and you could even use it as an internal and you could even use it as an internal support resource like at my last company support resource like at my last company support resource like at my last company it was a SAS company called drip when we it was a SAS company called drip when we it was a SAS company called drip when we hit 100 110 people I had a lot of hit 100 110 people I had a lot of hit 100 110 people I had a lot of customer success people and sales people customer success people and sales people customer success people and sales people that were coming to me because I ran that were coming to me because I ran that were coming to me because I ran product and they would have questions product and they would have questions product and they would have questions about the product All Those Questions about the product All Those Questions about the product All Those Questions could have been answered by having a could have been answered by having a could have been answered by having a tool like this an internal knowledge tool like this an internal knowledge tool like this an internal knowledge base that just is the brain of the base that just is the brain of the base that just is the brain of the company and knows everything about company and knows everything about company and knows everything about everything it knows all the knowledge everything it knows all the knowledge everything it knows all the knowledge that's in a lot of people's heads but it that's in a lot of people's heads but it that's in a lot of people's heads but it puts it all in one place and gives it puts it all in one place and gives it puts it all in one place and gives it this easy interface this chat interface

  5. this easy interface this chat interface this easy interface this chat interface to be able to talk to it keep in mind to be able to talk to it keep in mind to be able to talk to it keep in mind that if you were to create a support that if you were to create a support that if you were to create a support tool that let's say is an external tool tool that let's say is an external tool tool that let's say is an external tool that does chat and and email the that does chat and and email the that does chat and and email the existing support tools on the market existing support tools on the market existing support tools on the market today are absolutely doing this zendesk today are absolutely doing this zendesk today are absolutely doing this zendesk help Scout intercom you know that

opportunity number five is a quick on it opportunity number five is a quick on it opportunity number five is a quick one and it's to take transcripts and one and it's to take transcripts and one and it's to take transcripts and turn them into readable prose almost turn them into readable prose almost turn them into readable prose almost like a Ghostwriter would do so I run like a Ghostwriter would do so I run like a Ghostwriter would do so I run into this issue all the time where I into this issue all the time where I into this issue all the time where I need to write a chapter of a book I know need to write a chapter of a book I know need to write a chapter of a book I know that I've recorded a podcast or a that I've recorded a podcast or a that I've recorded a podcast or a YouTube video on it but the transcripts YouTube video on it but the transcripts YouTube video on it but the transcripts of those are spoken English that doesn't of those are spoken English that doesn't of those are spoken English that doesn't translate well into prose and so I translate well into prose and so I translate well into prose and so I either need to go in myself and take the either need to go in myself and take the either need to go in myself and take the ideas and reframe them into what you ideas and reframe them into what you ideas and reframe them into what you would expect to be in a book or an essay would expect to be in a book or an essay would expect to be in a book or an essay or I need to hire someone to go do that or I need to hire someone to go do that or I need to hire someone to go do that and there is no doubt in my mind that AI and there is no doubt in my mind that AI and there is no doubt in my mind that AI could learn my writing style and it could learn my writing style and it could learn my writing style and it could take a transcript from anything could take a transcript from anything could take a transcript from anything that is spoken word and turn it into that is spoken word and turn it into that is spoken word and turn it into written English because spoken and written English because spoken and written English because spoken and written have two different feels to them written have two different feels to them written have two different feels to them I for one feel like I would use this I for one feel like I would use this I for one feel like I would use this quite a bit opportunity number six is to quite a bit opportunity number six is to quite a bit opportunity number six is to build a tool that writes domain specific build a tool that writes domain specific build a tool that writes domain specific code so today you can go to chat GPT and code so today you can go to chat GPT and code so today you can go to chat GPT and say write me a JavaScript calculator say write me a JavaScript calculator say write me a JavaScript calculator that does x y z but it doesn't know your that does x y z but it doesn't know your that does x y z but it doesn't know your internal model you know if you have internal model you know if you have internal model you know if you have project management software then you project management software then you project management software then you have projects and users and tasks and have projects and users and tasks and have projects and users and tasks and reminders and whatever else and chat GPT reminders and whatever else and chat GPT reminders and whatever else and chat GPT doesn't know about them because they are doesn't know about them because they are doesn't know about them because they are specific to your business and your code specific to your business and your code specific to your business and your code so how difficult is it to train it to so how difficult is it to train it to so how difficult is it to train it to understand your domain model and the understand your domain model and the understand your domain model and the objects in your code so that it can objects in your code so that it can objects in your code so that it can start writing domain-specific code that start writing domain-specific code that start writing domain-specific code that you then proofread and write test for oh you then proofread and write test for oh you then proofread and write test for oh could it even write tests yeah there's a could it even write tests yeah there's a could it even write tests yeah there's a lot here and then how difficult is it to

  6. lot here and then how difficult is it to lot here and then how difficult is it to do that for your company or as a service do that for your company or as a service do that for your company or as a service for every software company out there and for every software company out there and for every software company out there and do I think that AI is going to take over do I think that AI is going to take over do I think that AI is going to take over writing code and we don't need writing code and we don't need writing code and we don't need developers I do not I think it's going developers I do not I think it's going developers I do not I think it's going to make us more productive and hopefully to make us more productive and hopefully to make us more productive and hopefully allow us to write better code and build allow us to write better code and build allow us to write better code and build less buggy software opportunity number less buggy software opportunity number less buggy software opportunity number seven is one where I started with a seven is one where I started with a seven is one where I started with a problem that product teams have and it's problem that product teams have and it's problem that product teams have and it's the ability to absorb a ton of feedback the ability to absorb a ton of feedback the ability to absorb a ton of feedback and feature requests and make decisions and feature requests and make decisions and feature requests and make decisions based on that some folks use a tool like based on that some folks use a tool like based on that some folks use a tool like Savio for example to gather feedback and Savio for example to gather feedback and Savio for example to gather feedback and then make decisions but when you're then make decisions but when you're then make decisions but when you're trying to absorb support emails feature trying to absorb support emails feature trying to absorb support emails feature voting boards

use way I used to do it some people use Excel spreadsheets and other people use Excel spreadsheets and other people use Excel spreadsheets and other people use the tools that I mentioned and you're the tools that I mentioned and you're the tools that I mentioned and you're trying to answer questions like what are trying to answer questions like what are trying to answer questions like what are our best customers asking for which our best customers asking for which our best customers asking for which features should we build next how much features should we build next how much features should we build next how much of an impact will these have does AI of an impact will these have does AI of an impact will these have does AI have the ability to absorb all of those have the ability to absorb all of those have the ability to absorb all of those incoming requests and not just incoming requests and not just incoming requests and not just prioritize them on what's being prioritize them on what's being prioritize them on what's being requested the most but to try to make an requested the most but to try to make an requested the most but to try to make an intelligent decision and inform your intelligent decision and inform your intelligent decision and inform your your decision of what should we build your decision of what should we build your decision of what should we build

a massive opportunity but I there's a massive opportunity but I think for most companies this is going think for most companies this is going think for most companies this is going to be a nice to have and not a game to be a nice to have and not a game to be a nice to have and not a game changing feature and the framework that changing feature and the framework that changing feature and the framework that I've been using for thinking about this I've been using for thinking about this I've been using for thinking about this is something I've already said is something I've already said is something I've already said throughout this video which is there's a throughout this video which is there's a throughout this video which is there's a corpus of text including audio or video corpus of text including audio or video corpus of text including audio or video transcripts the AI can absorb it and transcripts the AI can absorb it and transcripts the AI can absorb it and then answer questions about it it can then answer questions about it it can then answer questions about it it can write copy it can summarize it it can write copy it can summarize it it can write copy it can

this is changing so quickly that I do think a lot of things quickly that I do think a lot of things quickly that I do think a lot of things are going to be open sourced and become

  8. are going to be open sourced and become are going to be open sourced and become Commodities and so if you spend a couple Commodities and so if you spend a couple Commodities and so if you spend a couple months developing your email line months developing your email line months developing your email line subject writer I'm guessing that there subject writer I'm guessing that there subject writer I'm guessing that there will be one of those coming out it's a will be one of those coming out it's a will be one of those coming out it's a pretty obvious idea right and a lot of pretty obvious idea right and a lot of pretty obvious idea right and a lot of the obvious ideas is are going to get the obvious ideas is are going to get the obvious ideas is are going to get built and released for free and that's built and released for free and that's built and released for free and that's the danger here is that things are the danger here is that things are the danger here is that things are changing so quickly and you don't want changing so quickly and you don't want changing so quickly and you don't want to give months of engineering time when to give months of engineering time when to give months of engineering time when something is going to be open sourced or something is going to be open sourced or something is going to be open sourced or be available for free later so that's be available for free later so that's be available for free later so that's why in this video I liked to stick to why in this video I liked to stick to why in this video I liked to stick to things that are really hard problems and things that are really hard problems and things that are really hard problems and even domain specific problems because even domain specific problems because even domain specific problems because usually those problems are focused on usually those problems are focused on usually those problems are focused on later usually the obvious ones the fun later usually the obvious ones the fun later usually the obvious ones the fun ones to build get built they get open ones to build get built they get open ones to build get built they get open source maybe they're free but it's not source maybe they're free but it's not source maybe they're free but it's not going to be a competitive advantage over going to be a competitive advantage over going to be a competitive advantage over the long term but if you can spend a the long term but if you can spend a the long term but if you can spend a week or two and integrate with openai week or two and integrate with openai week or two and integrate with openai and crank out an internal tool to and crank out an internal tool to and crank out an internal tool to suggest email subject lines and then suggest email subject lines and then suggest email subject lines and then turn that into a free tool to me it turn that into a free tool to me it turn that into a free tool to me it feels like an interesting perhaps a feels like an interesting perhaps a feels like an interesting perhaps a worthwhile experiment well I hope you worthwhile experiment well I hope you worthwhile experiment well I hope you enjoyed it as I walk through those eight enjoyed it as I walk through those eight enjoyed it as I walk through those eight opportunities to use chat GPT in your opportunities to use chat GPT in your opportunities to use chat GPT in your SAS I hope that got you thinking if you SAS I hope that got you thinking if you SAS I hope that got you thinking if you enjoyed this video please hit the like enjoyed this video please hit the like enjoyed this video please hit the like and of course subscribe to the channel and of course subscribe to the channel and of course subscribe to the channel every week we ship a video like this on every week we ship a video like this on every week we ship a video like this on topics ranging from building launching topics ranging from building launching topics ranging from building launching and growing your startup
