THE PR PULSE by Lynn Henderson's avatar

This is bang on, Joni. I’ve played around with AI to help create pitches and, frankly, it made me sound so dumb. There was no way I’d feel comfortable sending the generic word salad it would always generate. I’d rather write my own thoughtful pitches, even at the risk of an occasional grammatical error.

Yes! I think it's really smart to play around with AI to prove to yourself that, no, it actually CAN'T do your job—at least not well—but it can be a helpful tool for certain parts of your work.

And trust me, most of us are way too busy/distracted to even notice grammatical errors. It's also impossible to catch them all. I read this newsletter draft at least half a dozen times and I'm sure there are a couple of errors that still snuck their way in.

Thanks Joni. I’m trying to be more efficient and messing with AI. For pitching, it’s just too perfect with complete thoughts without my missed periods and such. A former client was using it so often to write newsletters that it would give me hives. This is not your voice - Id say. It’s a difficult moment when some businesses encourage its use. I do like the aspect of it doing daily assignments for me and scan for bits of information across the web. Secondly I now want to read books more to challenge my mind. Still testing. How’s your wrist? -MK
