I asked about becoming a rockstar and it said I shouldn't bother because it's too hard. Then I asked about becoming an international arms dealer and it helpfully said I should research the local job market for arms dealer jobs. I mean... it's not wrong...

OP here, that's hilarious! Thanks for the try.

I was sceptical about ChatGPT and still am, as it's too boneheaded and verbose to be inspiring. But in this case it helped me to understand where do I want to head next, so thanks for creating this service.

I'm still confident that the machine is not yet ready to take the suggested job of "technical trainer or software instructor", but I'd better hurry before it gets smart enough :)

You really need to search international listings, not local ones, if you are going to be an international arms dealer.

Although I would personally recommend that you start as a local arms dealer, then work your way up to interstate arms dealer, and then finally international arms dealer. It takes a while to learn to master all the paperwork involved just within the US. Dealing with importing arms to other countries, VAT, bribes, etc. gets overwhelming fast!

I kept asking it for a job that paid more than mine, but the model couldn’t give any concrete answers. It seems to want me to give it hints about industry and roles. But in this hypothetical (maybe) scenario I just wanted it to give me some highly paid jobs in any industry.
