  • AI is helping people automate skills that used to take years to master.

  • It's lowering the barrier to entry for highly skilled work like writing, designing, and coding.

  • Here are 3 ways people are making more money with generative AI tools such as ChatGPT.

  • This story is part of "How Emerging Tech is Changing Everything," a series exploring the transformative impact of tech innovations across industries.

Since OpenAI launched ChatGPT last November, some workers have been using the chatbot to boost their productivity and make their jobs easier. Now, users are discovering new ways to make money off the new technology as the AI hype continues.

"We are currently in the gold rush era of AI," said Laura Anderson, a TikToker who advised viewers to charge customers for resume revisions made with ChatGPT. She said the software can make people lots of money — and said it was in its goldrush era.

The internet is now flooded with content from AI enthusiasts who claim that ChatGPT can be a viable source of income.

Search "How to make money off ChatGPT" on YouTube, and dozens of videos with titles like "How To Use ChatGPT to Become a Millionaire" and "Use ChatGPT to Make $320 Per Day" with hundreds of thousands of views will appear. On TikTok, the hashtag #makemoneywithchatgpt has racked up 3 million views, featuring videos on gigs like selling e-books, blog posts, and marketing plans made with the AI.

Even a cottage industry has emerged around AI educational services. A search for "How to use ChatGPT" on Udemy, an online education platform, yields 10,000 results on courses starting at $14.99 that teach students things like prompt engineering and how to integrate AI into their jobs.

Still, skeptics have criticized these AI-related gigs for exaggerating the monetary potential of AI and for offering a seemingly intuitive service that any novice can learn to do on their own. And of course, as with everything, it's always buyer-beware. Even so, some have proved that raking in extra cash from AI is, in fact, possible.

    Symmetry raises $18M to bolster organizations' data security programs

    As organizations embrace cloud services -- and are forced to confront changing regulations and data use standards -- their ability to maintain control of data security frequently becomes strained. The average cost of a data breach is about $3.86 million (per IBM), and most companies pay around $14.82 million per year for noncompliance, including noncompliance with data security policies. Ninety-seven percent of security leaders believe that their employers will either maintain or increase their security budgets this year, according to one recent survey, while 45% say that data security has "significantly" increased for them as a priority.

    Ultrahuman Ring Air review

    Indian fitness and nutrition tracking startup Ultrahuman has fast-followed its debut smart ring last year with a second generation of the device -- which officially launched in June. The new smart ring whittles down what was a slightly chunky form factor, for its original sleep & fitness-tracker, into a more svelte matte black* band it's calling the Ring Air. Although of course Apple doesn't make a smart ring.
