> Every inbound deserves respect, even if you think you’re not ready. Because the truth is, readiness in M&A isn’t a moment—it’s a mindset.

Dear ChatGPT, please rephrase these bulletpoints into a chapter of my book: ...

Pray tell why may we not just read the bulletpoints instead?

Sold your own company, but unable to use your own words?

When I see "it's not X, it's Y" I think of the music criticism of P. Bateman: "...it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself. Hey, Paul..."

Writer: AI, please flesh out these bullet points into a business book.

Reader: AI, please summarise this business book into a set of quick-to-read bullet points.

So the market is going to be flooded with this type of soulless books that have no distinct character or style, just pure dry facts?

In a sense, "I wrote a book about it" is disingenuous and I agree the author's bullet list would probably be more interesting and would save us a lot of time.

  • Good feedback, thanks! Will include a version of the original stream of conscience and raw note in a day or two

    • I would take back my negative feedback in that case! Am reading the book, content is interesting, but I am never sure what is actually your thought vs LLM fillers!
