    From a dev who is working on Siren extensions:

    “The more time I spend with Siren, the more I’m falling in love 💖”

    Dear managed WordPress companies.

    I choose you because when I have a problem, I can send a message in chat and promptly receive a human expert who can solve my problem quickly.

    The most powerful AI prompt I have in my arsenal:

    “I want you to interview me, asking one question at a time about {thing}. I have the information about {thing}in my head, but need your help extracting and organizing it.”

    Then, after all questions are asked, I ask Chat to put it into a report.

    It’s such a powerful way to get info out of your head, and you can do it with voice chat while walking.
