ChatGPT is recommending novel pricing.

[TimothyEllis]

On Quora I just found out a novella of 108 pages length was priced $6.99 on the recommendation of ChatGPT.

Serious WTF!

The book wasn't even formatted properly, missing things as basic as quotes on dialogue, and was a total dog's breakfast nowhere near ready to publish.

And it's got 6.99 on 108 pages because a Bot told him to.

The world as we know it is ending.

But those sorts of prices on Bot drek are not going to be any threat to anyone.

He claims he got 70 Free downloads from social media promoing. But to me the book was unreadable.

I've asked him if he wrote it, or if he generated it, but may not get an answer.

Maybe ChatGPT is pricing it high to deter people from buying?

Their margin is my opportunity.

The relevance and usefulness of the answer you get really depends on the question you ask GPT. In other words how adept you are with prompts. It also depends on the capability of the model used. GPT4o might give a useful answer.

For example, If you asked that question of GPT3.5 you would not get a reliable answer. Not only does it have no access to the internet to research the current situation, the data it was trained with is now quite irrelevant. It is also not up the task in terms of 'smarts'.
