Anne Handley is not here to bash AI—she actually uses it—but she is here to warn us about what happens when we use it too early, too often, and for the wrong reasons. Jay Schwedelson gets into it with Ann Handley about how to stay creative when AI wants to take over your brain, what’s really at stake for writers, and why being a good marketer still means sounding like an actual person (even if it’s a sweaty, messy one).

Subscribe to Total Annarchy—Ann’s free newsletter on writing and marketing that’s actually worth reading.
