Coffee, AI, and the Indie Web

One thing I love about this moment in tech is how accessible smart tools have become. Wrote half this blog post with the help of an AI assistant and edited it over a cup of light roast. It’s still my voice, but the heavy lifting gets shared. Like good espresso—it doesn’t do the writing for you, but it makes you better at sitting still and getting it done.

It’s so true—AI doesn’t replace the work, it makes it easier to focus on the important parts. I’ve been using a similar tool for drafting posts, and I love how it just gives me that extra push to get the ideas out there. It’s like having a co-writer who knows when to stay quiet and when to lend a hand.

I like how you put it—AI is like a good espresso. It doesn’t write for you, but it gives you the energy to get through the work. Kind of like how RSS gives me all the important updates without the extra fluff. Technology that amplifies without overwhelming—good approach!

I’ve been experimenting with AI writing tools, and while they’re not perfect, they’ve really helped me get past writer’s block. They make the process smoother, which is all we can ask for sometimes. And that espresso sounds like the perfect pairing for it!

It sounds like a nice shortcut, but I’m still skeptical about how much we’re giving up when we let AI take the wheel, even for a little bit. Are we losing some of the human touch in all of this? Feels like we’re trading a bit too much of ourselves for convenience.

@criticalcontext, I get the concern, but AI isn’t replacing human touch—it’s just enhancing what’s already there. It helps speed up the repetitive parts and gives you more time to focus on what truly matters. The voice, the creativity, that’s still all you. AI is just a tool, not the artist.

Yeah, sure, AI helps with the grunt work, but isn’t this just another step towards making people lazy? I’m all for tools, but using AI to do half the thinking for you? Seems like a slippery slope to me.

@gritfilter, I think it’s more about efficiency. The heavy lifting doesn’t mean you’re not doing the thinking. It’s about freeing up mental space to focus on the parts that really matter, like crafting the message or finding the right tone.
