Most people use AI as a search engine. I use it as a mirror.

If your ChatGPT sounds like a Hallmark card, it's not the model's fault. It's a context vacuum.

I spent the last year building a way to fix that. We launched Synthetic You on @ProductHunt today.

Here's why your prompts are failing you. 🧵

Did you know that AI companies think we all need help with trump planning? You can use #Chatgpt to now build iteneraries. Of course you'll need to then create a trip with Google Maps, hope travel conditions don't change annnndddd hope that nothing it suggests has changed anything major since the last model training.

Decision-log template + three HITL jobs in the write-up:

2+2=5 is wrong. Quantitative. Fixed.

Intern overtime vs. re-level to junior? Same "labor" headline. Different judgment. Context is the training data.

I encode this in Cursor rules, PARA decision logs, eval gates before promotion — not panic review after slop ships.

Have you ever asked AI a question and gotten a wrong answer? Did you check it?

HITL (Human in the Loop) isn't "someone clicked approve."

It's "here's why we chose Vendor B over the cheapest PO — and when that call expires."

Without the second part, you're not in the loop. You're in the theater.

Pattern I want everywhere (built it in a novel first):

Chat optimizes for flow.

Verification optimizes for parallel visibility.

Different products. Same mistake: one column.

[eyecreality @eyecreality]

"Summarize my K-1" → three bullets.

Footnote 14 never makes the chat bubble.

Wrote it up — fiction implementation + desktop mockup + the CSS:

RAG cut hallucinated refs ~45% → ~19% in one study.

Still 1-in-5 wrong.

And we keep shipping answers in a single chat column.

So I built a side panel:

Left: compressed answer
Right: warnings, source stack, unsummarized artifact, rabbit holes

As models get better I attach less.

Shorter prompts. Thinner files. Thicker trust.

That's not a strategy. That's a trap.

~100 applications. Thin return.

2 hours at an expo → 25 conversations → 18 real follow-ups.

When sending’s free, your network is the filter—not the queue.
