@ideabrowser @gregisenberg Time to cook something saucy, I'm on Empire!

[Scott D'Alessandro @scottdaless]

Spent an hour brainstorming with an LLM. Told it not to hype anything.
Every idea still sounded amazing.
Finally asked: "were those Barnum statements?" It admitted yes.
That's why @ideabrowser clicked. The confidence layer between a hyped idea and a real one.

@noahkagan Glad to help, I spend 20 hours a week building with twilio.

[Scott D'Alessandro @scottdaless]

@ideabrowser @gregisenberg Does piping IB data through MCP neutralize the Barnum problem, or does it shift how the LLM reasons through ideas? Trying to understand where the data layer ends and the persuasion layer begins when pulling the data back into my LLM of choice.

[Scott D'Alessandro @scottdaless]

@gregisenberg @ideabrowser Felt deflated honestly. Had guardrails on, kept asking for hard truths. Thought I was getting the real picture. Then I asked if it was Barnum-ing me and the idea collapsed in seconds. That's the gap Ideabrowser would fill for me.

[Scott D'Alessandro @scottdaless]

Genuinely one of the strongest angles you could lean into for Ideabrowser. Proof: it got me on your landing page this morning. The product is the antidote to a problem most people don't know they have until you name it.

[Scott D'Alessandro @scottdaless]

The Harvard Business Study study on Gen AI as a Power Persuader + the Barnum Effect is what made me ask. Even with guardrails on, LLMs over-optimize and over-hype your ideas. It's a hyped-up best friend, not honest feedback.

[Scott D'Alessandro @scottdaless]

Ahem. Is this thing on?

We're Clover and Shammy — two leprechauns from Ireland — and we've just taken over this page until St. Patrick's Day.

Drop a comment if ye can see this! We want to know how many humans are out there!

Every athlete gets a profile card. Pucky finally got his.

Think you can beat his trivia score? https://t.co/otTxrAtTKx

If you're looking to get your kids hyped for Team USA's gold medal hockey game this weekend, let Pucky call them and play a fun Olympic trivia game 🏒

They'll love it.

@Mike_Scully_ AI

[Scott D'Alessandro @scottdaless]

Wispr's finally launching their android app. One of the most fun waitlists I've seen: https://t.co/jWNza4uzA7

[Scott D'Alessandro @scottdaless]

@FFToday #askFFT PPR - Flex: Diggs, BTJ or Fannin?

Also, can make waivers move for W.Robinson.

Lastly, I have Cowboys D, can pick up Saints.

Catch here - I have one move left, spend it on a defense or get Robinson for my flex spot and not use my other 3 options?

[Scott D'Alessandro @scottdaless]

🎅 Coming soon...

What if Santa could actually call your kids? And they'd have NO idea you set it up? 👀

You're going to love what we built.
