it can't do creative writiing. It's bloated, doesn't know when to stop and kills nuance and subtext when it tries. And forget screenwriting ... totally misses that boat. BUT... #writing #writingsky #scriptsky #aiwriting #amwriting #indieauthors #claude

You have to control the conversation and direct it all the time b/c it goes off on stupid tangents and hallucinates AND forgets where it's at and the context it's in. This happens ALOT. Bottom line... #writing #writingsky #scriptsky #aiwriting #amwriting #indieauthors #claude

But... it sucks at script notes b/c it doesn't really grok screenwriting or how scripts really work. That said, it's dev notes are hugely insightful... BUT you must stay in the drivers seat. #writing #writingsky #scriptsky #aiwriting #amwriting #indieauthors #claude

AI STUFF: I've been deep in the rabbit hole with Claude and creative writing b/c Claude is supposed to be the best at writing stuff. NOT. But ... scary good at notes. It had impressed me with development notes. #writing #writingsky #scriptsky #aiwriting #amwriting #indieauthors #claude
