[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image source=”featured_image” img_size=”full”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Do you remember the Guardian article written by a robot? It was the work of the new and powerful GPT-3.<\/p>\n

What is GPT-3?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

GPT-3 is a text generation technology developed by OpenAI, a well-known artificial intelligence research company founded by Elon Musk.<\/p>\n

At the moment, not everyone can get access to it. OpenAI wants to ensure that no one misuses it. This is why it is available to only selected people.<\/p>\n

As an SEO professional, I was excited to use GPT-3 in ways that can help the people in the SEO industry.<\/p>\n

Before wasting any time, I decided to do whatever it takes to get my hands on GPT-3.<\/p>\n

Here is how I got access to GPT-3:<\/h2>\n

OpenAI API waitlist form<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I first applied for GPT-3 API through OpenAI’s official Waitlist form. On the form, I mentioned the intended purpose and the details about my project.<\/p>\n

\"OpenAI<\/p>\n

After applying, I anxiously waited to get a response. Two days had passed, but no response came.<\/p>\n

I sent a follow-up email. Still, no reply\u2026 A week had gone, though, no progress was made.<\/p>\n

Go the extra mile and show that you are serious<\/strong><\/h3>\n

My frustration was growing. But I thought there must be something missing. So, I thought of exploring Twitter and seeing if any users got access to it.<\/p>\n

There, I read the tweets of a few people who were able to get GPT-3 access. Their advice was to \u2018go the extra mile\u2019 so that the OpenAI engineer or the Chairman can get your attention, and they can see that you are serious.<\/p>\n

So, this is what I did:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Purchased a fancy domain for my intended project.<\/li>\n
  • Designed a demo landing page along with a small animation \u2013 just to give a glimpse of what\u2019s in store. And how my idea can benefit people.<\/li>\n
  • Tweeted about my project with a video and tagged OpenAI chairman. After only 10 minutes, I received a reply from him asking me for my email. And boom, I got access.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    @gdb<\/a> Hi Greg. My https:\/\/t.co\/iibYGMW3Xv<\/a> project is still awaiting GPT-3 access.<\/p>\n
