Hustle & Flowchart: Mastering Business & Enjoying the Journey

AI slop is everywhere and we're all getting good at spotting it. But can you spot it in yourself? That's what this is about... not the tools or wild automation setups. What happens to how you think, speak and write when you're spending all day reading and writing with ChatGPT or Claude? We're slipping into a time where our thoughts aren't becoming ours anymore. I wanted to figure out how we can stop this from happening so we can think and speak like ourselves. So I brought on one of my best friends and AI rabbit hole captain, Matt Wolfe (@mreflow), to show us his process for thinking clearly and not slipping into AI-isms when speaking and writing. He breaks it down for us so you know what to do. Let's goooo! And yes, I used AI to outline this video. I show you exactly how at 2:24, because the method is the whole point.
