Remember in th 2000s when we all developed “ad blindness?” That’s happening with AI content on social media right now.

We can all tell when something is lazily slipped out with AI, and because of the lack of effort and thought that went into it, people just skip over it.

If I wanted to talk to chatGPT, I would. But I’m on here to talk to YOU. So let me hear YOUR voice.

Your social profile should be you. Not a robot acting like you. All that does is water down your brand, and make your word less valuable, and noticed.

People: LLMs are simply predicting the right thing to say in response to you. They can’t think.

Me: Uh…isn’t that exactly what we do in conversation?

ChatGPT is an awful writer, but it’s a pretty darn good editor.

If you write the content yourself, and prompt it to be an editor, not a writer, it will make great suggestions to improve the flow of your content.

Everyone’s giving backlash on GPT5. I like it, personally. I hated how sycophantic previous versions were. The last thing I want is a “yes man” in my ear all-day.

Y’ALL IT HAPPENED. ChatGPT’s research feature just referenced me in its own research while generating a report…for me.

This feels a lot like when I used to search Stack Overflow for an answer to a question…only to find that I was the one who previously answered that question.

Does this mean I made it? Am I famous now?

I’m really beginning to notice that using AI effectively is, itself, a skill. People always position it as a magic solution, but you can DEFINITELY tell when someone lazily copypasta’s an AI response vs using AI to help them cultivate a thoughtful reply.

I know that AI gets shoved in places it doesn’t belong these days, and a lot of it is REALLY bad, but AI has completely transformed Feedly into one hell of a listening station.

I wonder if the future of the web looks more like a Feedly feed instead of a social feed?

I’ve come to find that telling AI to “stop being clever and just say the damn thing” seems to be very effective at getting better heading copy 😂
