The Genius of a Clever Idea
The Tur Shirt Company creates unique t-shirts with messages that can only be read in a mirror. These shirts aim to boost self-esteem and teach self-love to children.
The Tur Shirt Company
Terri-Anne Turton launched the brand in August 2020. The name "Tur Shirt" comes from her four-year-old daughter Amber's way of saying "t-shirt."

Terri-Anne Turton shared a success story: "I gifted 2 Tur-Shirts to an influencer and her kids loved them. It was heartwarming, and the orders started to flood in. I had an influx of orders over the weekend totaling ÂŁ1,300 in sales."

A tool to Remove The Digital Footprint Of Your Content Across Different Social Media Platforms
Metaspoofer is a tool that changes the metadata of your content and slightly alters its appearance.
It deliberately manipulates content data, such as images, videos, and GIFs, so that the output becomes unrecognizable to algorithms used by platforms like Reddit, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube, dating apps, and TikTok.
Although the altered content looks the same to human eyes, it appears completely different to conventional algorithms. This allows users to reuse their content without triggering detection mechanisms or facing penalties.
This technique is how content creators get more views for the same clips, similar to how the Media Scaling team gets 1 billion views for its clients in 180 days.

Through April, 2023: “The release of ChatGPT led to a 2% drop in the number of jobs on [Upwork] and a 5.2% drop in monthly earnings. We find a similar reduction in the employment outcomes of freelancers offering design and image-editing services.” Large effects in a short time.

Looks like Karpathy read my AI-generated Podcast Piece. Just kidding. But this is how ideas spark. 2 people on the other side of the world can come to the same conclusion when a breakthrough happens.
Some kid in a garage has already launched a full AI-generated podcast in a popular niche. You only need good curation. Expect PR articles covering this story in the coming months.
