So now Facebook (Meta) want me to subscribe to "Manus" - their new AI-driven intelligent thought partner - very similar subscription levels to ChatGPT - free, $20pcm, $200pcm, depending on the depth of knowledge (let's call that bandwidth) that you want to access.
As an early adopter, I was on the $200pcm version of ChatGPT very early and I've been teaching it "dental" for almost two years now - that's "The Extreme Business Autopilot©" and all of my clients get access to that same ChatGPT - so the more it gets asked, the more it knows.
The quality of responses we are getting on accounts analysis, business strategy and tactics, unravelling wicked problems with people and systems, wading through vast quantaties of data and providing summaries and recommendations - even reviewing treatment plans and suggesting improvements in presentation (not diagnostics - yet) - it's all been an amazing experience.
The challenge for the late majority?
Which do you use?
ChatGPT
Claude
Perplexity
Co-pilot
Gemini
Manus
It reminds me of VHS versus Betamax, iPhone versus Android - even nowadays Dentally versus SfD, versus Carestack versus others - or Dengro versus Boxly versus Leadmax versus a bazillion other CRM systems.
Who knows which, if any, Open.AI intelligence system, PMS or CRM will prevail.
But while the late majority are sitting around, wringing their hands indecisively, I'll be getting on with teaching my thought partner more and more things - and getting even better responses.
A sage once said "the difference between doing something and not doing something, is doing it."
Make a start.
Lead the way.
Pioneers do sometimes get scalped (there are risks) but they also find gold.

Very torn between ChatGPT and Claude right now. Someone said I can migrate all my information from ChatGPT to Claude. Lets see!
I have been using Chat GPT for a year now, Claude since a month. I like the way claude articulates & presents the data ready in excel / power point / word file, ready to hit print. Chat Gpt is a lot of copy paste, re-styling requirements, but great at social media copy writing. Now, its a mix n match of both based on my requirement
