I've often advised clients on selecting their brand colors, but I never thought about creating my own until a friend suggested it. Curious what colors might suite my personal brand, I turned to that special someone that seems to know me better than anyone else — ChatGPT. Let me share the 12 carefully curated colors, along with their hex codes, that ChatGPT recommended based on my unique style and inspirations.
Vintage Sepia (#704214)
Subtle Olive Green (#556b2f)
Enigmatic Midnight Blue (#191970)
Playful Coral (#ff6f61)
Quirky Mustard (#ffdb58)
Thought-Provoking Mauve (#e0bOff)
Woodcut Brown (#8b4513)
Imaginative Lavender (#ебе6fa)
Charcoal Gray (#36454f)
Haunting Charcoal (#474747)
Vintage Gold (#d4af37)\
Mysterious Indigo (#460082)These colors blend the sophistication and playfulness of your humor with the inspiration from your artistic influences, creating a unique and captivating personal brand palette that reflects your creativity and style.
I told ChatGPT that I didn’t believe those were real colors. It assured me the names might not be entirely accurate, but the hex codes were correct. Knowing ChatGPT can sometimes be a big fat lair, I looked up the hex codes. Two of them did not exist. But the others were there.
I have to admit, ChatPGT pretty much nailed it. Brown is my favorite color, followed by mossy green. I’m also quite into inky grays and blacks. So I thought, “Why stop there? Why not have ChatGPT write this blog post for me?”
I will not subject you to the drivel that ChatGPT produced about crafting your personal brand identity and how “creating a personal color palette can be a transformative journey that reflects your unique style and creative essence”. There are still a few things I can’t leave entirely up to ChatGPT.
