The intro notes it was written with help from Claude, but I should have been more specific. The core ideas came from my own reading and thinking through this for my own career planning.
Claude helped me tighten prose, find and cross-reference sources, stress-test arguments, and smooth transitions. The writing is polished with AI, but I read over every single word and edited it until I was satisfied.
On the broader point: if AI helps deliver clearer writing and the human is checking it and driving the ideas, that’s better for the reader. The distinction that matters is unchecked slop vs carefully checked writing.
Thanks for raising this.
