A wave of cross-border workers are going to lose their jobs? This "weapon" is gaining popularity

What changes will the super popular chatbot ChatGPT bring to the entire industry?

ChatGPT has become very popular recently , sparking heated discussions in all walks of life. Many cross-border people have found that ChatGPT is the best "assistant" for their work. Although it can sometimes fail, the answers it gives are often perfect.

This surprised many sellers, but also triggered a sense of crisis among some cross-border people: If this application becomes more mature in a few years, will I lose my job?

ChatGPT becomes a tool for cross-border people to reduce costs and increase efficiency? Here is a guide to English writing usage

ChatGPT is a general chatbot developed by OpenAI. It is a phenomenal product in the AI ​​circle. It had more than 1 million users in just one week after its launch on November 30 last year . The product uses certain algorithms and a large amount of text training. It can answer questions, write code, create text and other instructions as long as it is provided with requirements, forming a certain degree of AIGC (artificial intelligence generated content).

Now, ChatGPT is growing rapidly and attracting more and more people. According to the latest research report released by UBS , as of January this year , ChatGPT's monthly active users are estimated to have reached 100 million, making it the fastest growing consumer application in history. In January this year, about 13 million unique visitors used ChatGPT every day, more than double the number in December.

At present, a large number of cross-border people are trying out this application! After using it, many people found that ChatGPT is a great tool for reducing costs and increasing efficiency.

" In 2023, English writing assistance tools such as ChatGPT, DeepL and Grammarly can be used when writing foreign trade development letters, product descriptions, and marketing copy, " said an industry insider. Compared with 10 years ago, ChatGPT and others have greatly lowered the threshold for creating English content.

It is understood that some people use ChatGPT to write English essays. It used to take 2 hours to write an article of about 500 words . Now the time has been greatly shortened to about 10 minutes, and the words and language are very beautiful.

ChatGPT is good enough in some aspects, but some people still think that this tool is very good at "nonsense literature". Someone asked it: How to do a good job of Amazon market research? ChatGPT said that sellers can follow the following steps:

1. Determine the product category or market you want to research. By determining the product category or market you want to research, you can better search for relevant information and conduct targeted research.

2. Search for related products on Amazon. Searching for related products on Amazon can help you understand the product categories , brands, prices, and reviews of the market.

3. Check product reviews and ratings. Product reviews and ratings can provide valuable information to help you understand consumers' real feedback on the product .

4. Understand your competitors. Knowing your competitors’ information can help you better analyze the market situation and provide reference for your product positioning and marketing strategy .

5. Analyze the market. Analyze the market based on the information collected and draw conclusions and recommendations. Based on the analysis results, you can determine the product positioning, pricing, marketing strategy, etc. and develop a corresponding action plan .

In short, Amazon market research requires patience, care and seriousness, and it should be done by collecting information, analyzing data and summarizing .

“There is really nothing wrong with this answer, but it always makes people feel that it is grand and empty, without soul, and does not say anything useful.” A cross-border person said that he had the same feeling when asking him other questions such as “Do Chinese sellers still have a chance to do business on Amazon now?”

In summary, cross-border people think that this tool is not very useful in some aspects, but in many cases it can play a very good auxiliary role in work. After using it for a period of time, Weibo blogger "Sister Shu Chats Cross-border" found that in the process of e-commerce operations, ChatGPT is very helpful in generating product descriptions, writing email marketing content for independent sites, writing customer service emails, answering customer questions, generating social media content and advertising copy, assisting in market research, finding product selling points and marketing ideas, or doing SEO content (finding SEO keywords, writing blogs). How can cross-border people use ChatGPT better? "Sister Shu Chats Cross-border" said that when asking questions to ChatGPT, it is generally necessary to be more detailed to get a better response. If one reply is not good enough, the seller can ask him a few more times in a different way . In addition, when asking questions, you need to try to ask in English so that the answers you get are more accurate. For example, the usage of ChatGPT in writing-related English writing is as follows:

1. Outline : write a bullet point outline of……

2. Abstract : Simplify the following article. Write a four sentence summary of …….

3. Research : Give me background research on……

4. Proofread the following article. (DeepL or Grammarly would be better for polishing )

5. Find ideas :

Give me 5 blog ideas of…

Give me 10 blog titles for….

Give me popular content ideas related to….

ChatGPT is coming in full force. Will a wave of cross-border people lose their jobs?

ChatGPT is being used by many giants.

All Microsoft products will integrate ChatGPT, and Amazon cannot resist its charm either.

It is understood that ChatGPT has been used by Amazon in many different job functions, including answering interview questions, writing software code, and creating training documents. The tool feels so good that Amazon is wary of it, warning employees not to share company confidential information with ChatGPT at work, including the code being written, because the input information may be used as iterative training data for ChatGPT.

At the same time, Internet giants have also laid out ChatGPT. Sundar Pichai, CEO of Google's parent company Alphabet, said that a large-scale language model based on artificial intelligence similar to ChatGPT will be launched in the "next few weeks or months", and users will soon be able to use the language model in the form of a "search companion". Baidu also said it will launch an artificial intelligence tool similar to ChatGPT.

ChatGPT is coming with great momentum. What impact will it have on various industries? Will a wave of cross-border people be replaced by ChatGPT and become unemployed?

Some people think that ChatGPT still has many limitations, so it will not pose a big threat in the short term. "This tool is good enough in some aspects, so it misleads many people to think that they can rely on it to do anything important. In fact, ChatGPT still has a lot of room for improvement in terms of timeliness and authenticity." In the eyes of some people, ChatGPT should not be overstated . It is just a very powerful language model, and it can only say some "seemingly fluent" words, but cannot give opinions ; more importantly, a lot of the data it provides is lagging and cannot keep up with current events.

There are also many people who have truly felt the threat posed by ChatGPT and others.

These people believe that ChatGPT and other tools further amplify personal power, bring "icing on the cake" effects to people with innovative abilities, and also free individuals' hands and pull them out of the vortex of inefficiency. Now not only employees of large companies have to face competition from AI, but even lawyers with higher professional requirements have also been challenged. So in the eyes of these people, in the future, companies will only pay more attention to human efficiency, and some regular, mechanical, repetitive, and low-tech jobs can easily be replaced by artificial intelligence . There are even voices saying that ChatGPT may bring about the next wave of unemployment, and the scale and speed of unemployment will be larger and faster than the wave of physical automation, especially for junior white-collar workers. "ChatGPT greatly improves work efficiency. If the company's efficiency is improved, it will definitely abandon the original inefficient, time-consuming or more costly behavior patterns. I feel like this thing is aimed at my position . If I make progress for a few more years, my skills may be completely replaced. " Some people have a sense of crisis.

In fact, no matter how cross-border people view smart tools such as ChatGPT, everyone does need to work hard to improve their work skills at all times to improve their competitiveness.
