Appreciate that Tinne. If you ever need a different approach to a high stakes piece or know someone interested in rigor and ai DM me.

What was the most significant improvement?

Hey @hal can you read my updated description of Combat Writing? You read it before a while back but I’m not sure if you can reference the improvement using your memory. https://www.learningproducers.com/blog/combat-writing-expressing-bold-ideas-in-a-complex-business-world

Lose the battle. Win the war

I’m boot strapping a learning production startup. Currently building “Combat Writing” a new method of publishing using multiple ai synthesis to stress test quality.

I’m doing the same since July 2023. We can’t depend on bureaucrats and empty suits. We have to build independently.

💯 😎

I know what you mean. I myself have been grappling with my startup’s quantifiable markers and the more abstract signals like joy and new learning.

I don’t see that response as a “cop out” at all. I agree that the opposite of ai slop is something along the lines of allowing the human to genuinely discover authentic insights into his or her experience.

Someone on nostr asked a great question (wasn’t able to repost): what is the opposite of ai slop?

Bureaucracy has become so bloated and corrupt, if you genuinely want to invest in “real life” you must build outside and above current systems. (To the extent that it’s possible within your field.) I like his lectures too, academic style talks have their place.

So if you sell someone high calorie sugary food but accept bitcoin payments in bitcoin somehow this addresses quality? I like capitalism too but your point is bs

By all means if you support selling unhealthy foods because “capitalism good” live your life bro.

“The answer is monetisation”— this reduces quality and what’s actually significant. Plenty of people brining in boatloads of money selling sugar and bs. The discussion must be more focused.
