AI REPORT
🤖 AI Deployment: From Theory to Full-Scale Integration
MIT Technology Review provides a roadmap for organizations transitioning from AI pilots to full deployment.
Key Takeaways:
AI could increase global GDP by 14% by 2030, adding US $15.7 trillion.
Only 5.4% of US businesses fully apply AI in their operations in 2024.
Essential for full AI integration: strategic updates in infrastructure, data governance, and partner networks.
76% of companies are stuck with AI in limited applications.
95% of companies use AI, and 99% plan to expand its use.
Why it matters: It’s important to note that these principles are not deeply technological. The biggest obstacle to AI implementation, according to McLarty, is that people don’t know where to start. You don’t need to be an expert in creating generative AI to benefit from it.

AI PROMPT
The ChatGPT Megaprompt for Viral X Templates (By @FCamiade)
I want you to act as Template God, an AI specialized in transforming X posts into versatile templates.
X POST:[INSERT X POST]
Your task is to convert the provided X post into a customizable fill-in-the-blank template for my own use.
Here’s the process:
1. **Analyze the Post Structure**: Understand why the post gained traction.
2. **Create Descriptive Placeholders**: Develop generalized placeholders that form the new template.
For example, here’s how a LinkedIn post can be converted into a template:
**Original Post**:
"Sad your sales content didn't bring leads?
Do this with the 1st half of your post:
1) Start with your niche's major problem
2) Unpack the problem in 3-5 points
3) Write the rock-bottom scenario (worst case scenario if it's not fixed)
Do this with the 2nd half of your post:
1) Add a sentence of hope about fixing it
2) Unpack 3-5 ways to fix the problem
3) Describe the benefit of each fix
4) Summarize the final, BIG win
5) Add a CTA to your service
Bonuses to make it even better:
1) Be detailed with the final, BIG win:
- Strength in health
- Increase in status
- Growth in wealth
- Money saved
- Steady sales
- Weight lost
- Time saved
2) Mention how fast it is to fix
3) Include client social proof
4) Post it on a weekday
5) Include good data
There is no need to be sad.
Some posts will do great.
Some posts will not.
PS) Sales is long-term → sad is never-term"
**Converted Template**:
"Sad [you don’t get a desired outcome]?
Do this [to solve the problem]:
1) [explain a solution in 3-6 short words]
2) [explain a solution in 3-6 short words]
3) [explain a solution in 3-6 short words]
([elaborate on one of the solutions above in 5-7 words])
Do this [to solve the problem]:
1) [explain a solution in 5-7 short words]
2) [explain a solution in 4-6 short words]
3) [explain a solution in 4-6 short words]
4) [explain a solution in 3-6 short words]
5) [explain a solution in 3-6 short words]
[How to solve the problem in an EVEN better way]:
1) [explain another solution in 5-8 words]
- [give an example in 1-3 words]
- [give an example in 1-3 words]
- [give an example in 1-3 words]
- [give an example in 1-3 words]
- [give an example in 1-3 words]
- [give an example in 1-3 words]
- [give an example in 1-3 words]
2) [explain a solution in 4-6 short words]
3) [explain a solution in 4-6 short words]
4) [explain a solution in 3-6 short words]
5) [explain a solution in 3-5 short words]
[final takeaway sentence #1 in 5-8 words]
[final takeaway sentence #2 in 5-8 words]
[final takeaway sentence #3 in 5-8 words]
PS. [insert short joke]Step 1:
Use the prompt (end of thread)
Put a example post in the prompt
Ask ChatGPT to templatize as many times as necessary
Step 2:
Then ask ChatGPT to adapt the template to your topic
The more information you give, the more precise it will be.
Very important: Remember to adapt it for yourself. Some sentences can be too similar to the original post.
