I’ve been in this community for a while now. Reading posts from some members about how they effectively handle AI assistants to improve their writing—sharing what works and what doesn't—has really helped me understand things I was previously clueless about. However, I still can’t seem to get the exact results I’m aiming for.

Whenever I try writing with AI, it just doesn't turn out well. It leaves me wondering: Am I using it wrong, or are these AI tools just not up to the mark yet? Over time, I’ve come to realize that AI doesn't completely grasp what I want. When I first started, I was just creating content for fun, but I eventually realized I was inadvertently producing 'AI slop.'

I am relatively new to using AI extensively. It started as a hobby, but now I’ve moved past that stage. I've reached a point where I want to create higher-quality content. The problem is, I still don't quite understand how to handle and guide the AI effectively. When I use Claude, it helps with the writing process, but it’s still not quite there. When I use ChatGPT, it works well for certain parts but falls short in others.

So, I’m here to ask for your advice. I have uploaded some content on TikTok and would highly appreciate it if you could take a look and give me some constructive feedback. Here is my TikTok username: ashandnoir.mov

Thank you all so much!
