I pretended to be a stuck actor and asked ChatGPT for career advice. What it said surprised me.Try the Actor Career DNA Decoder (free) ➡ https://act-bold.com/dna-decoderSo I did something a little weird. I opened ChatGPT in an incognito browser, logged in anonymously, and pretended to be a stuck actor.
