Noooo, I ask if work flows and how it can be tightened up as the first step of every AI edit šŸ˜‚šŸ«ØšŸ¤ÆšŸ¤¦šŸ»ā€ā™€ļø BUT, I am hoping I have redeemed myself in that I find I use Option C almost exclusively now. AI gives its new edited version, but I still have my original draft that I work from and I determine what stays and what gets accepted with a greater degree of control as the edit is not done exclusively in AI (and it does diminish the ongoing while vs. whilst friction!).

I use a prompt of Mia's for texturizing language at the end of the edit and tearing out some polish/corporate speak that may have crept in. Works a treat! Although never ask AI to come up with it's own metaphors, very hit and miss šŸ˜‚

The metaphor thing is so true. I've started treating AI metaphors as placeholders. "Put a metaphor here" marked in brackets, then I fill it in myself later with something that actually fits how I think.

I found this to be the case with Grok, Gemini, Perplexity, and ChatGPT, but I have found that Claude is very good at consistency, not forgetting what I have written and building on it. Have you tried Claude for your writing?

I primarily use Claude. I noticed HUGE improvement when the 4.5 models were rolled out.

The others, especially ChatGPT, had a lot of degradations for writing.
