AI for self empowerment
We launched ChatGPT three years ago with an at-the-time frontier AI that could answer simple questions and were shocked by how quickly it was adopted and the creative ways people found to apply it in their lives. For example, ChatGPT usage data reveals that the typical power user uses 7x more thinking power (and thus 7x more compute power) than the typical user.

Why it matters
Sales and marketing run on research, lists and follow-ups. Agents are starting to take on that groundwork, freeing people for the conversations that actually close deals. It is one of 613 sightings filed under Sales & Marketing on Agent Sightings (number 520 by interest), and one of 145 involving ChatGPT.
How you could try it
Here is a reusable prompt, written by us in our own words, that captures the task. Paste it into ChatGPT or any similar agent and adjust the details to your situation.
I want an agent to do the research and drafting for this sales or marketing workflow, and stop for my approval before anything is sent. The tool in the source case was ChatGPT.
Tip: Start small: run it once on a low-stakes example, read what the agent did, and only then let it run on real work.
