I Turned One Blog Post Into 12 Tweets With ChatGPT, Then Fixed the Robotic Ones

The model drafts the thread. You save it from sounding like a press release.

I pasted a 1,200-word post into ChatGPT and asked for a twelve-part thread that kept the original's one good idea.

The first draft was tidy and dead. Every line opened with a number and ended with a call to action nobody asked for.

So I told it to sound like the post's actual voice and drop two of the twelve if they were filler. It tightened fast.

I rewrote the hook myself, because the model's hook was a question nobody was asking.

Now I use it to break the post apart, then I write the openings. The labor saved is real; the voice stays mine.

The AI draft is the starting point, not the send button. Here is the three-pass routine that keeps it human.

A research paper I'd been avoiding became a 25-minute walk. The workflow is dumb, and that's why it worked.

Not zero-inbox. A loop that decides what is real so I only touch email twice a day.
