Do You Remember The Moment Everything Changed?
It’s 2007. Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone in his legendary keynote speech. The brilliant setup, surprise, and buildup left everyone in awe.
Jobs said,
“The most advanced phones are called smartphones, so they say.
And the problem is that they’re not so smart and they’re not so easy to use”.
Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone in 2007
Before he started to tell you what a product does, he always took the time to explain why you need it. Easy, smooth and natural.
And now, Apple has done it again.
Their recent WWDC keynote was so captivating that I’d love to upgrade my whole tech setup instantly. [Link]
There were no buzzwords - just features.
Apple introduced their newest shiny object: The Vision Pro, their first spatial computing.
And there was something that stood out.
It was the opposite of recent events of Big Tech companies like Google, Nvidia, Adobe and Microsoft:
The term “AI” wasn’t mentioned ONCE.
Instead, the word “You” appears 47 times.
When my newsfeed started to get flooded around the Vision Pro this week, I wondered why this keynote was so captivating.
Why is everyone talking about it? Why will everyone want this AR headset now, when cheaper and lighter ones have been available for years?
They created a powerful storytelling, showing how nothing really changes, except, that
“Everything is better with the Vision Pro.
Everything you want is now centred around you […].
You can do anything you want, without controllers or additional hardware.
Effortless, seamless and never isolated from the people around you.
Transforming what’s possible, […] always in sync with your iPhone, iPad and Mac […].
Everything is automated”.
With the current speed of change and technological advancements, Apple’s storytelling embraced people’s problems.
They’re talking to their fears of change and annoyance about the need of additional controllers or hardware (Oculus controllers hint).
And yes, they referred to the tech, but only in the form of “machine learning”—the technically accurate description.
Apple took another route and skipped the bragging and the buzzwords.
And that’s what we’ll do today, too.
Cut the noise and make it about how tech can help YOU.
Let’s dive right in.

ChatGPT Plugins
What Are The Benefits of Using ChatGPT Plugins?
Plugins are like the app store for ChatGPT. They all serve their specific purpose.
🚨 They are powered by third-party applications that are not controlled by OpenAI. Be sure you trust a plugin before installation.
🌐 Plugins connect ChatGPT to external apps. If you enable a plugin, ChatGPT may send parts of your conversation and the country or state you're in to the plugin to enhance your conversation.
🧠 ChatGPT automatically chooses when to use plugins during a conversation, depending on the plugins you've enabled.
Why Do You Need Them?
ChatGPT works on a trained database. That’s okay for generic content.
But: Plugins allow you to access even bigger and more up-to-date databases, video content, URLs, PDFs, research papers, and more.
They are essential for making the ChatGPT experience more personalized and tailored to YOUR needs.
(Unlike Google, which gives you at least four to five ads before you find something you were actually looking for).
How Do You Get Them?
Get the ChatGPT Plus Subscription ($20 p.M.) and GPT-4

Go to "Settings"

10 Best Plugins You Need To Know

How Can You Use Them?
There’s no FAQ or guide, but you can always ask ChatGPT how to use a plugin best.
Make sure, that the plugin, that you want to know more about, is enabled.
You need to check this for every new chat.
Note: You can only enable three plugins simultaneously. I’m sure this will change soon.

👌🏼 1 Thing To Do
📖 Read Build by Tony Faddel [Link]
Tony Fadell led the teams that created the iPod, iPhone and Nest Learning Thermostat and learned enough in 30+ years in Silicon Valley about leadership, design, startups, Apple, Google, decision-making, mentorship, devastating failure and unbelievable success to fill an encyclopedia.
So that’s what this book is. An advice encyclopedia. A mentor in a box.
On the speech that everyone remembers. When Steve Jobs told the world about the iPhone in 2007.
“[Steve Jobs …] used a technique I later came to call the virus of doubt.
It’s a way to get into people’s heads, remind them about a daily frustration, get them annoyed about it all over again.
If you can infect them with the virus of doubt - ‘Maybe my experience isn’t as good as I thought, maybe it could be better’ - then you prime them for your solution. You get them angry about how it works now so they can get excited about a new way of doing things.
Steve was a master of this. Before he told you what a product did, he always took the time to explain why you needed it.”
