Ok, LOVE this (shocker, because +1 to what Max said). You nailed so many parts of this (me nodding along as you talked about the guilt re: environmental impact!!) but I think this end part cut to the quick: "This thing was never meant to replace the muscle, it was just supposed to keep us moving in a business already addicted to output. The job hasn’t changed. You still need to spot the bullshit, and cut the fluffy filler. You gotta trust the instincts that no machine can simulate."
I'm trying to teach myself how to use AI strategically—largely for fear of being "left behind," whatever that means. And I've found Claude's instincts are just... bad. Ok, maybe not bad, but not *mine.* I'm not yet at a place where I 100% trust the output—or even where I 85% trust the output. And if we're all using AI to write AND comment on each other's content, what are we even doing here?
this isn't a sponsored comment, but I always enjoy your writing.

Anyway. Thank you for sharing, per usual!
