Emily Hanley is a freelance copywriter, writer, and comedian. She said she started losing work when clients decided to use ChatGPT instead of hiring a copywriter. Hanley says that if a robot can do your job for less, it'll end up doing that. Clients were simply unwilling to pay for copywriting any longer unless that writer could also provide email management and a funnel-building system, most likely because of the newfound popularity of ChatGPT. Most of my clients were small businesses, startups, and young brands, which are typically the first to adapt to new technology to cut costs — aka me.
