I love Claude for writing, but the outage this morning is killing me. It forced me to get back onto ChatGPT for the first time in a while, and honestly, that's working just fine. I renewed my ChatGPT Pro subscription to get some work done. Might cancel Claude and only use it via the API going forward.

curious how you use ai for writing... not because I don't think it can be done or I'm confused, I just like to know about other people's process

It's pretty involved. I'm going to write a mini-course or tutorial at some point. In brief: 1. Very long instruction sets with examples of my past work and multiple projects/agents. 2. Come up with an idea and use Claude to write learning objectives and research questions. 3. Research with Perplexity. 4. Copy/paste research from Perplexity into Claude and write an outline using my instructional design agent. 5. Record myself teaching through the outline. 6. Transcribe using Whisper. 7. Give a Claude project (with its instruction set) the learning objectives, research, outline, and transcript to write the first draft. 8. Prompt to edit some. 9. Copy/paste into Grammarly to edit further. 10. Copy/paste into Libre Writer for final typesetting and editing. I've been doing this long enough (20+ years) that I can tell the final output is very similar to what I would have written but I'm producing it around 3 times faster than I have in the past.

I set up MSTY with an Anthropic API key because the huge amount of context I'm using means I could only do 5-10 prompts on claude.ai before hitting my limit.

Wow. That's a lot more detailed than I expected. And extremely interesting. Thanks for sharing.
