Wikipedia is the most upweighted source in AI training. It also has a documented governance failure in one of its most contested topic areas. Almost nobody puts those two facts in the same sentence.
Appreciate the thoughtful topics, analysis, and particularly the sourcing and attention to both sides. Curious how you use AI in your writing process. It’s something I’m working through at the moment.
Also would love an article on your current take on state of the art AI toolchain. Whats the best way to source internal legacy docs onto context? Is rag dead and it’s all mcp now (probably not).
I start with an idea, pass it to Gemini deep research and let it bring all the facts. Than write down the main points of the article I want to pass to the reader. for each one i dictate the main text into word, than once I have the draft ready I pass it to Claude along with the Gemini deep research citations. I have a ready skill workflow with a memory of my own voice that is sharp, no nonsense, lead with facts. Its an entire document of my personality and communication style. Dry humor included :) I ask it to rewrite the article in my voice. What i get back i feed into Chat GPT and ask it to fact check it. Once it passed fact checking I generate a header image with Nano banana and off it goes to the Substack machine to be scheduled for posting.
Actually you don’t take your shoes off at airport screening because of the 1970 hijackings. That incident certainly birthed the modern screening apparatus. But the shoe bomber is what extended it to shoes.
What was introduced: Walk-through metal detectors (magnetometers) for passengers and low-dose X-ray machines (or hand searches) for carry-on luggage.
Footwear policy: Passengers walked through the metal detectors with their shoes on. Shoes were only inspected if they contained heavy metal components (such as steel-shank work boots) that triggered an alarm.

Excellent question John.

Hope that answers your question.
