Happy Thursday, everyone!

Earlier this month, I hosted an Ask Us Anything session alongside fellow lifestyle writers Alice Dubin and Aly Walansky — we fielded nearly two dozen questions about chatGPT/AI content and the seemingly nonstop news of media layoffs.

For those who couldn’t make it (and because we hit our 100-person max capacity!), we promised to roll out the information in the form of lightly edited Q&As from the transcript of the conversation.

So last week, we shared the chatGPT/AI highlights with you, and now we’re back to share our discussion about the recent string of media layoffs and what that means for publicists.

Hint: It makes my post earlier this week about the importance of relationship vs. transactional pitching even more timely!

Wondering if it’s worth your time to check it out? Here’s just some of the feedback we’ve received:

“Just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to chat with us today. It’s a great reminder that none of us are alone in this and there’s always something we can do to support one another in these industry shifts.”

“Thank you SO much for hosting that Zoom today.  With so much crazy stuff happening in our world right now, I am very grateful that the 3 of you were willing to take time out of your busy schedules to share your wisdom and expertise with us.”

“Thank y'all so much for hosting a meeting today! It's so nice to have thoughtful freelancers like all three of you to give us advice and guidance on the pub industry. The AI info as well as supporting one another through these heavy times is very helpful. I'm so grateful!”

“Thank you SO much for taking the time to host the AUA session this morning -- such an informative way to start the day! Appreciate your insight on the issues affecting our industry at the time.”

“Thank you for taking the time out for today's AMA! The entire team found it so helpful, and encouraging. We were just chatting about it in our team meeting. We really appreciate all you fabulous gals do everyday!!!”
