Theme for the Week: Systems as Self-Expression

✨ In Today’s Episode:

• Why most founders prompt from panic, not principles

• The difference between automating and amplifying your mind

• How to train your AI with context and clarity

• A framework to make your tools think like you (not just for you)

Your AI Tools Should Mirror Your Mind

Train your AI like your protégé

🧠 ONE Smart Idea

AI won’t replace you. But untrained AI might misrepresent you.

Most founders use AI like a vending machine.

You throw in a prompt, and out pops... something vaguely useful.

But the real leverage?
Training your tools to think like you.

To reflect your voice. To uphold your principles. To act like an extension of your brain…not just a glorified search engine.

AI isn’t just a timesaver.

It’s your digital apprentice. Treat it like one.

📖 Story Spark

When I built my first custom GPT, I made the rookie mistake:
I gave it tasks… but not values.

It was smart. Fast. Competent.
But its answers didn’t sound like me. Didn’t feel like me.

Then I realized…

I was outsourcing output without offering context.

Once I trained it with my frameworks, tone, and worldview?

The thing became scary-good.
Like “I would’ve said that” good.

⚙️ Tactical Application: The Mirror Model for AI Alignment

Here’s how to train your AI tools to actually reflect your thinking:

1. Write Your Thinking Charter

• What values do you want baked into every output?

• What should your tone always feel like?

• What shouldn’t it ever do?

(Yes, write this down. Think of it as your AI Style Guide.)

2. Create a Repeating Prompt Ritual
Use a base prompt template like:

Build a prompt library that includes:

• Your favorite decision-making frameworks

• Your “this is how I explain things” breakdowns

• Your recurring mental models

3. Train One GPT to Be Your Mirror
Create a custom GPT (in OpenAI, ChatGPT, or Poe) with:

• Your voice notes

• Your writing samples

• Your product philosophy

• Your SOPs and tools

Now, when it writes emails, plans strategy, or answers questions—it’s doing it as you.

🪞 Mirror rule: The clearer your inputs, the stronger the reflection.

🧵 What’s Happening in AI

Catch up on the #AI + #Business news over the last 24 hours. (November 5, 2025)

::: THE HEADLINES :::

📉 Global #stock markets slumped as fears of an #AI investment bubble grew and major chip-makers in Asia like #Japan’s Advantest and #Taiwan Semiconductor staged sharp drops.

🇨🇳 #China instructed new state-funded data centres to technically ban the use of foreign AI chips and only deploy domestic processors, intensifying tech-sovereignty risks for global supply chains.

🤝 #IAC struck a content-licensing deal with @Microsoft for its AI Copilot platform, even as its stock fell ~12% after Q3 results showed revenue of $589.8 million and a net loss of $21.9 million.

::: USEFUL TECH UPDATES :::

@OpenAI announces “GPT Mentors” concept. Future GPTs may include embedded founder-specific prompts (aka mental clones).

@AnthropicAI adds Memory to #Claude. It can now remember your style and preferences across sessions.

💬 Closing Insight

The founder of the future won’t just write better prompts.
They’ll train better proxies.

AI alignment isn’t a feature. It’s a philosophy.
