Open AI...
So I was with some friends and we were discussing the ChatGPT AI which is quite scary. I managed to log on (Theres a hell of a lot of demand) and thought I would ask it to write a blog post. It's really worrying how well this thing writes actually. I've put the blog post below - enjoy

When it comes to working in the entertainment industry, many performers are tempted to work for "exposure." But let me tell you, working for exposure is like trying to pay your rent with a fistful of compliments and a pat on the back. It just doesn't cut it.
First of all, working for exposure devalues the hard work and dedication that performers put into their craft. I mean, have you ever heard a musician say "I don't need money, I just want people to hear my music?" Yeah, me neither.
And let's be real, when you're working for exposure, you're essentially saying that your skills and talent aren't worth actual, you know, money. But let's be real, your talent and skills are worth more than a free drink at the bar and a pat on the back.
Another issue with working for exposure is that it's like trying to plan a road trip without a map or GPS. There's no job security, no guarantees on the number of gigs you'll get, and no idea how much income you'll have from one month to the next. It's like trying to plan a vacation without knowing if you'll have a place to stay or a way to get there.
And let's not forget, working for exposure can also be a trap for young and inexperienced performers. It may seem like a good idea at first, but in the long run it can actually harm your career. It's like trying to save money by eating ramen noodles every day, sure it's cheap in the short term, but in the long run it's not sustainable and not good for you.
In short, working for exposure in the entertainment industry is like trying to pay your bills with high fives. It just doesn't work. Performers deserve to be compensated for their time and effort, and working for exposure sends a message that your work isn't worth paying for. It's important to understand the value of your work and to negotiate fair compensation for it. So next time someone offers you "exposure" in exchange for your talent, just remember, exposure doesn't pay the bills.
