New workflow: 1. Open a voice memo app 2. Brain dump your thoughts on a topic; record it 3. Transcribe it 4. Import transcript into NotebookLM 5. Get it to generate a slide deck using Nano Banana Pro 6. See your rambling thoughts visualized into structured & beautiful slides and feel smart
The best are always learning. Read like crazy. Think alone. Keep a journal. Write stuff down the moment you see it. Review regularly. Memorize the big ideas to fluency. Attack your best ideas. And never get high on your own supply. You don't have to be gifted. You do have to be deliberate.

New essay: How to be creative (without taking drugs)
How to be creative (without taking drugs)
I don't use AI to write on X because I actually enjoy writing must be shocking for some people writing feels like it's detoxing my caffeine-fueled brain shooting your thoughts into the internet ether is a form of playing an instrument made of words you do it because it's fun
I’m starting to get into a habit of reading everything (blogs, articles, book chapters,…) with LLMs. Usually pass 1 is manual, then pass 2 “explain/summarize”, pass 3 Q&A. I usually end up with a better/deeper understanding than if I moved on. Growing to among top use cases. On the flip side, if you’re a writer trying to explain/communicate something, we may increasingly see less of a mindset of “I’m writing this for another human” and more “I’m writing this for an LLM”. Because once an LLM “gets it”, it can then target, personalize and serve the idea to its user.
Next up… Slide Decks! Turn your sources into a detailed deck for reading OR a set of presentation-ready slides. They are fully customizable, so you can tailor them to any audience, level, and style. Officially rolling out to Pro users now (free users in the coming weeks)!

"Anytime you have a disproportionately strong reaction to something, you have to train yourself to lean in." Chris Sacca on @ADoricko and a taste for good weird:

Vibe coding in 2025 = blogging in 2005. Back then, Blogger, WordPress, and TypePad gave everyone a voice. Millions started blogs. The barrier to publishing vanished overnight. But here’s what actually happened: Most quit after 3 months. They didn’t take advantage of the incredible power long term. The winners? Seth Godin (still shipping daily, 20+ years later). Paul Graham (essays that launched a thousand startups). Maria Popova (turned curiosity into Brain Pickings). They didn’t have the best ideas every day. They were the ones who kept showing up. Now Cursor, Bolt, Lovable, and Replit are doing the same thing for software. Everyone can build. The barrier to shipping just vanished. Millions will try. Most will quit after their 1 or 3rd app. Because they may not make a ton of money yet. The winners won’t be the most technical. They’ll be the ones who treat this as a craft, not a hack. Who ship 50 projects over time, not 1. Who use the “vibe coding power” to learn and understand what users actually want. The tools democratize access. Persistence determines outcomes.
Unfortunately, the rumors are true… I can no longer hide the truth. Yes, I did use ChatGPT to write a few tweets when I first started this account. Even worse… I posted in Build in Public. I didn’t have an audience. I didn’t have confidence in my voice yet. But I knew I wanted to get better. That was the beginning of the journey — not the definition of it. Since then, every tweet has been mine. No prompts. No shortcuts. Just reps. I hope you’ll forgive me — and stick around for what comes next. Would you like a spicier or more humorous variant as well to post later as a follow-up?
