What Rich chef ingested with ChatGPT will leave you stunned. There we go. So what you see here in this picture are 32 books. These 32 books represent 29 years of my private journal entries. If I stack them up, it's that high, and that's about 3ft high. I took pictures of every single page of every single journal. I went to print it, turned it into a PDF, then compress that PDF. I tried to convert these PDFs, these handwritten PDFs, right into text with ChatGPT, but I found that it didn't do it very well and it struggled to do it. So I went to this site, handwritingocr.com and they, their, their algorithm is insane and does an amazing job of converting handwritten text into text. And so that's what I did. And then I uploaded them into ChatGPT, and then I asked it this question. And now the information I was getting was insanely valuable. So here's what I really recommend to each and every one of you. If you haven't had any private conversations with ChatGPT, you should. And I believe that we're really on the cusp of a new era where, where we really can leverage technology to be much better versions of ourselves. And that's what I want to help people do. Because I cannot impress upon you how profound the answers are that you will get. I could show you more of my answers, but they're not going to be profound for you. They might be interesting, they might be curiosity evoking, but I can tell you that as interesting as that may or may not seem, you will be fascinated. You will be blown away by the insights that you receive about yourself. I have had it guess accurately every single type of personality profile. So I asked it to guess what my Myers Briggs was, and it got it right. I asked it to guess what my Colby score was. It got it right. I asked it what my enneagram was, it got it right.
