yes, its all ai writing. A bunch of the metaphors here dont make sense. "read it all, yes even the bullets. especially the bullets" if you read one thing from a large wall of text, its gonna be the bullet points, right? thats a big part of what they're for? "It is the conversational equivalent of forwarding the email." this is a terrible metaphor. it seems to rely on the idea you would be mad if you sent an email to…

Actually tbh AI outputs can be pretty good and I have been surprised to see a lack of copy / pastes of them in the format of:

Unique human prompt + AI output which is useful and does a good job expanding on the prompt topic and which when pasted saves people the time of having to go prompt AI on the same topic (fully reviewed by a person before sharing it, to ensure the content has relevance)

Heh. Just got done writing (by hand!) a Principles of AI Use document for my (ironically) AI enablement firm, the first of which is: Write as yourself. You’re being paid for your expertise and insights. Communicate them directly to us. Copying and pasting Claude responses into Slack or an email directly shifts the burden of comprehension and understanding to everyone else, and worse, risks skipping that step for your…

Any chance you would publish that guide and share here?
