Hi Michael, this is so true! Especially if you're using ChatGPT which has become overly effusive. I think the people saying "You can spot AI because of em dashes" are missing the point... the em dash is the canary in the coal mine. I generally feel compelled to re-write anything that feels out of tune with "me", but sometimes I just need the focal shift from an AI correction.

This first month has been a lot of bite sized AI advice for the newsletter, but I hope to start deep diving into some of these topics. I haven't even touched on automation or general life simplification yet. I hope to get into finetuning, so to speak, the way it writes soon.

Do you use AI for any writing yourself?

On point Jody!

I will be launching my new Substack project soon. We have a lot of synergy in our writings. Perhaps there is a collaboration brewing for down the line! Keep up the great work!

Hit me up once you're up and running, I'm always a fan of a good collab.

What're you going be publishing about (I mean, I can guess, to some degree) and what's it going to take to hit publish on that first post?
