·6 years ago was a different time. I'd left my employer and struck out again as a heat-seeking fractional (before it was flavour of the year). I saw RMIT Activator might be looking for a short-term resource, had a chat with Matthew Salier and then sent him this. There's an outsized demand issue versus the supply for most mid-senior+ marketing jobs. Newsflash - AI isn't going to make this reali...

AI versus Marshy 74 - catch-up edition
AI versus Marshy 74 - catch-up editionWhere you been maaaan? Hey fam,Six months.That's how long I've been quiet.In AI terms? I’ve basically missed a Jurassic park. I’m still not sure how I feel about AI-generated imagery for the sake of it, but I’ll see how things go over time I’ve still been following the space like a madman. Building solutions for my clients, bingeing YouTube, and picked up a part-time gig doing early-stage marketing recruitment at Pointer, and trying to buy a house while wran
AI versus Marshy 73 - OpenAI is this generation's MySpace
Hey readers,We’re now two weeks away from ChatGPT being 3 years old.It’s safe to say awarness is close to “your uncle telling you to buy bitcoin” stage now.I’ve done my best to cover it.Partly out of morbid curiosity, partly out of bemusement, and partly out of the belief that this technology is (eventually) going to fundamentally change everything.Yet clashing with that belief is a recurring question:“Are we fucked?”Why does it keep popping up?Well - have you seen the movie The Big Short?It's a

As we approach the 3-year anniversary of ChatGPT, I've been thinking about the potential risks and consequences of this technology. In this article, I'll be focusing on the AI bubble and its effects on companies like Nvidia. Let's dive in and explore the situation. The second groundswell has (obviously) been generative AI. This technology also requires GPUs (with exceptions - check out
AI versus Marshy 72 - some parts in a growth system
Hello stranger!Welcome to another edition of AI versus Marshy.Something unfortunate happened since last edition - I started writing a “let’s go deep on a topic” edition to change things up.Then it got too large, and the tool I was covering wasn’t as easy to use as originally hoped, and things got stuck.So then I abandoned ship, got really busy with client work (good), then went ahead and started writing another edition covering Claude Skills and some other things and then go stuck again!So here’
