Let's walk and talk
Last week, I faced a dreaded task: corporate board papers.
This would normally be the kind of CTO task that would have me ruing the day I ever stopped being an IC.
But this time, something magical happened.
Instead of staring at a blank Google doc, I hit the streets of London, my trusty AI voice notes app in hand.
Walking, rambling, storytelling, I could brain dump exactly what I wanted to say, without having to add a corporate filter.
My thoughts flowed freely, unburdened by the usual bureaucratic stiffness.
Back home, an LLM transformed these casual rambles into professional prose.
Bingo.
From tedious to delightful, with barely a keyboard stroke.
Even this blog post was conjured during an evening stroll in rare British sunshine.
I've given it a personal polish, but the hard work? Already done.
It's not about ditching desks and never writing things from scratch again, but about embracing flexibility.
AI doesn’t replace; it expands the spectrum.
And if new tools mean I can feel human while being corporate?

How could AI help you feel more human today?
