I was wondering if there are any changes to premiums or starters... Nothing was announced, so I presume no.
Sorry, I tried twice to ask but received no reply. Please exc
Yes, we haven't announced. Was going to allude to this update within our weekly Beer With Kyle discussion, but yes the P+ members now have access to 20,000 monthly Word Credits! :)
Thanks, Kyle; I appreciate your response here. I can probably get away with three more articles a month on top of the dozen I do. That's plentiful and generous of you guys :)
I just spent $25 on extra AI words, so it would be more sensible to go PPlus.
And I’m ready for the P+ training,
Thanks
Steve
Well now I have to do some digging because I have seen a ton of banter in live chat this morning.
Kevin and Son
Great question, Abie! 😎
I know that PP now gets 20K AI word credits a month, going forward.

It warned me that this content may violate our usage policies. Hmm, I don't understand. Why?
(image coming)
LOL...I received a similar response a while back for a cute image of chickens. For my life, I never could figure out what would be against usage policies for a picture of chickens. I switched two words, and I had no problems after that. Sometimes, I think ChatGPT's mind is in the gutter.

I am glad you have it sorted now... I am okay as well, just careful how to word things 🤣🤣🙏
I just asked ChatGPT what is rich eggplant, and it responded:
It might describe a deep, vibrant shade of purple, similar to the color of a ripe eggplant. Alternatively, it could be a culinary term describing a dish made with eggplant that is flavorful, perhaps prepared with luxurious ingredients or cooked in a way that enhances its richness.
Then when I asked how to cook rich eggplant, it gave me the recipe for Eggplant Parmesan.
Maybe there something in the wording or how your phrase it, Abie?
Isaiah 😊
Lol, that's the response I was expecting lol. Instead of what it gave me... Maybe the bot doesn't like me, lol, Or think I am too posh for its taste lol.
Thank you, Isaiah! Makes absolute sense.
Hi Abie
The word “rich” may be the problem as the GPT could make the inappropriate association of rich vs poor, which may have violated a visual content restriction.
Oftentimes, these GPTs are not intelligent enough to fully understand the appropriateness of the restrictions placed on them, and they may give an illogical response since an image of rich eggplant clearly has a different meaning.
Try substituting the word rich with something like lucious and see what happens.
For example, I’ve come across a similar problem with the word “elderly,” even though from the context of my sentence it was not meant to be judgmental or hurtful.
Frank 🎸
Thank you, Frank! You and Phil have the same conclusion... lol.
I thought it might be an egg, as I asked about an interpretation of a previous joke I made in the live chat. (which, of course, I wasn't aware of at the time) -
But yeah, it does make sense... Perhaps I should be considerate of how I word things.
I asked it again, and it gave me good images... I tried to find a picture I wanted to show and asked GPT to create another based on the uploaded image.
Have a great start to the week, Frank :)
Haha, this is one of the reasons I don’t use AI in my guitar playing, Abie.
I don’t want it trying to interpret what I “meant” to say with a harmony, melody, or rhythm, especially when I’m just having fun. Lol 😎
How are you liking Claude Sonnet?
Frank 🎸
It's a lot smarter and more playful than Claude Opus, lol (I have Opus with Poe.com). I subscribed for one month to try it out.
They say that Opus outranks GPT4, but it has yet to prove its worth lol... I'm not sure I would want to pay another month of Poe, to be honest.
Dall-3 makes good images in Poe, but GPT4 is better lol.
Hi Abie
Claude Opus could have limitations when accessed through Poe. Have you tried one month directly through the Claude platform?
Yeah, I find DALL-E 3 in GPT4 to be the best image AI, especially with image editing.😎
Frank 🎸
I think you're right; even GPT4 has limitations.
That's what is next on the agenda :) I have not yet. Dall3 amped their imagery, so I stopped subscribing to Leonardo. Ai.
I have never had good results with Leonardo AI creating Pinterest images for my guitar niche. It creates unrealistic shapes on things like neck headstocks, etc.
DALL-E 3 does a great job with creating realistic guitars and amplifiers, right down to the knobs, and recognizes the differences in body shape between one guitar and another.
Once I found the right image AI, it was all in the prompts. So, I created custom GPTs with very specific image design specifications.
That's very clever, Frank! I may have to do that, too, at some stage.
Leonardo may be better with general imagery; it does produce great quality. But obviously, I can do a lot better with Dall3
I may be in touch real soon to learn more about the custom GPTs, lol. So, I take it you build them with your own prompt specs and keep enhancing them until you get what you want.
Hi Abie
Yeah, that's all there is to it. For example, I'll create a GPT for a certain make and model guitar and add all the required specifics for model year, body finish, fretboard wood, etc.
The rest is just experimentation and refinement until I get what I need.
It works well for me because I'm designing reusable objects and putting them in various environments, like a recording studio, etc.
It would not be worth all the effort if I were creating totally different images with each AI session. In that case, I'd use DALL-E 3 in the generic ChatGPT4 AI.
Frank 🎸
Based on this question, I may do a 40 to 70 posts guide covering growing, harvesting, and creating with Eggplants under one roof :) Later, I can build a shop with eggplant produce supporting local farmers - the imagery is immaculate but general. But it is a start...
That's where I may need assistance with a special bot; we'll see.
That's awesomely good, Frank! I am learning new things :)
Not that I want to, lol. I am going to have to hire more writers here, lol. I am currently working on the complimentary travel websites as there's ample opportunity with those.
It sounds like you’re scaling your online marketing business quite a bit, Abie, which is a good thing! 👍
For me, it’s just something to compliment my music hobby, so things are simpler and less time intensive. 😎
Frank 🎸
Oh yeah! I dream of becoming a Media and Publishing house, with many website brands to show under one roof - like DotDashMeridith or CondeNast and others... Hmm!! With many $ millions in ad revenue 💥💣
I have a whole lifetime to achieve this dream................ 🙏🤞
Give it to the people; try to accommodate their requests, though I know sometimes you cannot please everyone.
It has to be broadly Networked so that people can benefit from all the publishing. It starts with connection.

Are you finding it beneficial? Do you recommend it? They do monthly as well as yearly...
Thanks :)
Hi Abie,
I’m using the free version of Poe and I like it better than the free version of chat gpt.
Thanks, Jenny, but you only get so many points—not enough to keep going. I like how Poe's assistant asks follow-up questions.
I haven’t encountered any limitations with the free version yet. I mainly chat with the Poe assistant.
I have also tried koala ai and copy ai, free versions.
Both have been great at outputting outlines and natural sounding articles without the fluffy wording.
But, free versions only allow so much.
I have them bookmarked but haven't tried them... Thank you. I appreciate your feedback here :)
I am a subscriber. I use it mainly for image generation and outlines. I am monthly but they do have a yearly option. I believe it is $200. As far as recommending it, I cannot give you a fair assessment because I have not explored the entire platform. If it wasn't for Dall-e, I would not have subscribed.
I am with the poe subscription, but I use it for outlines. Other than that, I have no further experience. I use a couple of other tools for research and content creation.
I am thinking of subscribing for a month. Try it out, especially Claude Opus, and take it from there.
Thanks, Michael; I appreciate your response here :)

The focus is EU clientele.
Should I write content in English (UK) or English (US)? Or it makes no difference, I'm wondering... here. What do you guys think?
Thank
EU folk learn English English, but they will have no trouble understanding American English. Its only a matter of the odd letter being different and will probably not even notice.
After all, my French spelling is sometimes a bit dodgy but my French friends understand completely what I am writing.
Hope this helps, Abie.
Bux
It does, thank you, Bux :) I was looking at some other sites; they even have them in many languages to suit folks who also do not know English.
I want to install TranslatePress, as it comes integrated with my theme, to see how it plays out.
Thank you, and I appreciate your response, Sir Bux! :)
Ciao back 🌹and I just had a bit of pistachio ice cream to reward myself. I have been cutting/chopping wood all day long, you know.
Raspberry ice cream and strawberries for me.
Cutting wood brings back memories of living further north when I had a big wood fired Aga cooker. The cats loved sitting in front of it.
Yup, I totally hear what you're saying... You can roast some chestnuts and enjoy some port. :) That's what we do sometimes. The cats must have been really happy.
Oh yum, pass some ice cream over, please. :) I'll share some pistachio in return 🤣🙏
Hi Abie,
If you are writing in English, you should write in UK English.
American English was based on UK English and a lot of EU citizens like to travel and work in the UK to learn English.
I know this because I was their manager.
English originated from England, UK
Regards
Brian
I would write however you personally write in English. I am native Dutch and no one has ever noticed on my blog or socials that I am not native English.
the only things to consider are things like prices of accommodation, I mention prices in dollars, but also in Euro's whenever appropriate. Or if you write about places to stay in the UK, it is in pounds :-)
Also, the metric system is different , so things like distances are in km and not in miles.
Electronic devices can be different as well, if you need an extra device to plugin your electronics like laptops , for example. Sometimes for some accommodation, you need to mention that the system can be different, depending on the country.
if you describe how to go somewhere, consider that in some countries people ride on the other side of the road, etc..
Lizzy
There is a distinct difference between Uk UK English and US English.
Football- Soccer
Pavement- Sidewalk
Petrol- Gasoline
Just to name a few. Even the way we write the date is different. In UK it's day/month/year.
We in the UK are used to things being influenced by USA so really I don't think it will matter how you choose to write your content.
Yup, and that... Totally... Thanks for your notes :)
I like to customize to my clientele's needs, thus accommodating their inquiries, and I think the best option is to provide both copies in English, UK & US. Then they have a choice :)
Calling you from the UK, Scotland actually. Definately go with English (UK). Europeans who speak/write/read English are used to the UK version. Where we use ou rather than o as in colour, honour etc. or programme rather than program is actually due to the French influence on the English language. Not a lot of English people know that.

I wrote a post. I chose four sections, but the outline was five. I could NOT change it to write five sections instead of four—it got ruined. So now I have redone the outl
Once you have chosen the number of sections in the outline, you cannot change it. So it is best to double check your outline before starting to write to make sure it matches your desired structure. If you want to have five sections, make sure to select that option from the start. You can start fresh and create a new post with the correct number of sections. Keep trying💪
Hi Abie
You can manually delete and add sections and talking points once the outline is generated.
Frank 🎸
I know this. But you cannot choose five sections if the AI gives you an extra section. (We can select how many sections before the outline.)
I’m not aware of a way to get what you’re after, Abie. However, I don’t concern myself with that.
I choose my number of outline sections and modify them to suit my needs after they are generated.
When the AI author writes the article I pop the content into ChatGPT, which rearranges it and adds or removes sections and content, as necessary.
I find this two-step process gives me quicker and higher-quality results.😎
Frank 🎸
Ah, thanks for the tip, Frank! I also use GPT to critique the content generated further.
But in this instance, it decided to give me an additional section. Anyway, I redone the thing and re-edited the original outline I wanted.
But obviously, it cost me credits to refix it.
Hi Abie
I’m never satisfied with the number of H2 sections and the lack of H3 sections, so I fix it all in ChatGPT. Lol
I guess it’s time for sleep; it’s 2 AM here. 😎
Frank 🎸
Thanx Frank. Yes I also use ChatGPT feedback on users passage to add or remove sections and I like the results so far.
Hmmm, thanks for this little hint here. I've been taking 2 different articles plus my own thoughts and add-ins, and making into one. I might try it, although I'll probably continue doing it my way! 😋
