We are trying to build a workflow and it goes like this: - we sketch the general idea for the article in Notion - we use ChatGPT to expand on the topic and explore contrarian perspectives to validate the idea - I do the final edit and use Grammarly and Quilbot to ensure clarity and fluency - result goes onto our 400k subs newsletter (from a 1mil list of our users who opened any of our newsletters at least once) - feedback is used to improve on the idea which goes on our blog

From the content creator's perspective, AI tools are of immense help. Finally, we as a small team can allow ourselves to find time and create content instead of being stuck in a constant development loop.

Let me give you some direct feedback on this then - it reads as 'content' and not an article. ChatGPT seems to blow out word count in a fluent way but the resultant text seems to have much lower information density, the sort of thing you might expect from a student learning to write paragraphs. Genuinely I asked if it was AI generated because it felt like filler.

Perhaps you need an editing down phase?
