I’m really bad at remembering that my entire strength of character is not hinged on whether or not I can palm all my newly washed pairs of socks in one hand to make it to the drawer in a single trip

hiring someone whose full-time role is to write AI prompts and tweak AI-written articles seems like it would require just as many resources as having your reporter just...write the story. i truly don't understand. this doesn't seem more efficient at all AND of course the end product will be lacking.
