What’s the specific prompt you always give Claude? I'll go first: "Have a conversational tone and keep my words as much as possible. I value humanity above all else. Content should evoke a feeling. If you need more context, ask me questions.”

Sure, focus on GEO, but it's overhyped for now

There isn’t a foolproof way to avoid sounding like AI, but there are steps you can take to improve AI-generated writing (or your own): 1- Write like you talk 2- Make a tone of voice doc 3- Customize AI’s system prompting 4- Run your work through an AI detector and then edit from there Honorable mention: hire a human writer 😈

it's not for me, the algo wants it ^my motto every time I take a picture^

Knives Out meets Babe. I went in blind and cried 3x.

Still thinking about the aerospace engineer who told me the future of AI data centers will be in space bc of social sentiment. No one “owns” space.

An AI founder told me to my face last month that I was probably a better prompter than most—but that my job would be obsolete if I didn’t keep honing that skill. If they’re saying this to my face, they certainly aren’t fighting for marketing FTEs. So I told him, “Yes, I do have prompting skills, and I believe taste and all art has to stay with humans. ” Then I politely left the convo.

I started my first FT crypto role in 2018. Everyone at @Consensys wanted to replace banks, and now the industry sells the most to them. Not stating it's right or wrong, just an observation...

I fully believe we’ll soon have schools that return to handwritten essays, oral assessments, and more group projects. And the littles will get more playtime, which does wonders for the mind.

I'm begging you to touch grass this weekend instead of chat

Ted Turner, founder of CNN, died today at 87. nytimes.com/2026/05/06/busin… Most obituaries will focus on his enormous impact on the media world, but I'd also note that he revolutionized philanthropy. Before him, rich people gave to museums, universities, churches. They spent more money buying paintings of women than actually helping women or girls. And then in 1997, Ted changed that almost by accident in a speech. "I was on my way to New York to make the speech,” Ted recalled to me later. “I just thought, what am I going to say?” So, to make the speech interesting, he announced he was going to give $1 billion to the UN to fight global poverty. (Here's the piece where he described how he made that gift: nytimes.com/2012/12/27/opini… ) That started a competition among tycoons to be more philanthropic and led many more to try to help the needy. He made giving cool, and he saved countless lives. RIP, Ted Turner, and thanks for all you did.

I fear we've lost the ability to value humans and what makes life meaningful for a billionaire's gain

Successfully got my husband to switch from ChatGPT to Claude

we still need good writers because we still need good thinkers

Most people I know in AI think the median person is screwed, and they have no idea what to do about it. I spent the last 3 months talking to dozens of researchers, economists, and policy experts about AI's impact on work; including reps from every frontier lab and several Congressional offices. Unfortunately, I was not reassured. The AI industry is raising the alarm, but can't change course. These companies' core business model relies on the disruption they are warning about: their faith in full automation only makes them go faster. Policymakers are waking up, but still paralyzed by data and debates. Econ wonks disagree on plenty, but even the limited scenario looks like a "painful transition" that will disempower millions of workers. But an "underclass" is not inevitable, but rather a societal choice — and one we can and should stop. Instead of waiting for impact, we should start planning now to support workers through AI disruption. Whether policymakers can assuage concerns about economic security may determine if we get to reap AI's gains at all. New from me for @NYTOpinion. I put a ton into researching what I think may be the biggest topic of the year, so hope you read it (gift link here!) nytimes.com/2026/04/30/opini…

Free tip for in-house folks: If you wouldn't engage with the branded content yourself, REDO the whole thing.

Write more. Write more. Write more. Write more. Because writing is thinking.
