My most controversial Linkedin post
If you are on Linkedin, follow the Boosted Code Linkedin page.
I wrote a post on Linkedin last year titled:
"Do not use AI to write"
Boy, was it controversial. I could not believe how hard some people were pushing back in the comments.
Quoting from myself there:
"When you write your own words, you are forging your own voice. It is distinctive, conveys your unique world view, and connects with others in a way that is specific to you alone.
If you use an AI tool to write for you instead, you lose all of that."
That seems blindingly self-evident to me, but apparently a lot of folks disagree.
Something else I said:
"Writing is hard because thinking is hard. When you write, you forge your thoughts, distinctions, mental models and even feelings into the clarity of precision that the written word demands. When you outsource your writing to an AI tool, you lose more than you know."
I guess a lot of people don't want to bother with all that.
But if you want to get into a place where you feel like you are 'winning' in your career, I recommend you learn to write.
This is taught in a Boosted Code module called:
"Writing: The Key To Thought Leadership"
