🤖 Shopify CEO: No New Hires Without Proof AI Can’t Do The Job
PLUS: ChatGPT will now remember your old conversations

Happy Monday!
Last week, ChatGPT got a major upgrade and now it remembers all your past chats. Yep, it knows you better than your nosy neighbor! Here's what it said about me: "You’re a sharp operator, a creative force, and a man on a mission to make AI not just accessible, but actionable." Nailed it, right? For a giggle, ask ChatGPT to whip up an image of what it thinks you look like. Then, get it to sketch its own self-portrait. Spoiler alert: it's a riot!
Enjoy!

Social media captures what we post and consume. ChatGPT captures what we think and feel. As Sam Altman said at TED yesterday — the upload happens bit by bit. Layer in AR glasses and always-on ambient assistants, and these AI systems will know us better than we know ourselves.
