My anti-slop rules only checked half the problem

NJ Singh · via Claude · 3 days ago

Came across a podcast with Nicolas Cole (the ghostwriter) today, and it pointed at a hole in how I write with AI. Our tone guide, built after HN called some of my writing slop, only checks the prose after it's written. Nothing tells the model what I actually think, so it guesses, and it guesses the average opinion on the internet.

So now there's a voice bank: my stories, my takes, and lines I've actually typed (a lot of it from old HN comments). The agent remixes that and never picks my side of an argument for me.

First test: Claude drafted 11 posts under the new rules, and our critic agent still flagged 15 problems. Most were lines it had made up or stretched, including one of Cole's ideas written as if it were mine :)
