I don’t use AI in my writing but I’m genuinely curious about the skill and space while completely understanding why many people do as there are many reasons we all write.

You’re easily my favorite creator in this space on how to use this incredible tool while remaining the driver.

Good stuff brother

Appreciate you saying that!! Really means a lot, especially coming from someone outside the AI-writing lane. I think curiosity without judgment is one of the most powerful positions to hold right now. So thanks! :D

Really appreciate you laying this out so clearly, especially the Core/Mantle/Surface breakdown. That framework seriously resonates with me.

I’ve been doing something similar in my own process and still iterating to get the balance right. It’s wild how much clarity that kind of structure brings when you’re trying to use AI without losing your voice.

Thank you! That means a lot. And very true. I’ve found that structure doesn’t stifle creativity but unlocks it, especially when working with AI. When you know what parts of your voice are non-negotiable, it’s so much easier to co-create without compromise. Love that you’re experimenting with your own version too.

Nicely done. I found it very helpful to read your thoughts on creating an AI process that is truly collaborative. I’m hoping to implement your ideas on My Vitality Vibes site. Thank you! https://vitalityvibes48.substack.com/
