– Insights from Winton’s AI Lab 🚀🤖

This week’s Live AI Lab was a deep dive into harnessing AI as a freelancer—from automating content creation to training ChatGPT for smarter, more relevant results. But the real gem? Winton tackled the big question: Is using AI cheating?

His take: AI is like autopilot for pilots. It doesn’t replace the skill—it enhances it, allowing you to work faster, solve bigger problems, and focus on what truly matters. Freelancers who don’t embrace AI will be competing against those who do… and that’s a disadvantage you don’t want.
