Article Muse provides sources

So after some tweaks (and avoidance of naysayers on Reddit), you can get ChatGPT to provide you with links.

They work too.

Here’s what I wrote:

It will not write any copy, but instead provide a layout, and for each suggestion of a topic, will provide the user to a link of where Article Muse obtained the source. These links should preferably be to academic articles and white papers that contain facts and data, instead of news outlets or websites. There should be three clickable links provided per point, underneath each point. These links will appear as the full URLs for each link provided in the article outline. These links should not be broken, and be fully readable and the text referred to in the response should be clearly visible on the linked page.

The links do work.

Some of them don’t unfortunately, but I’m still working on that.

The problem is that the way I write an article is almost by sketching it out first and then adding the detail.

This is something human that AI can’t really do, because it’s hard to put into words how you think in this way.

For example, in writing this article ‘How printing money works’, the second point and source that Article Muse provides talks about central banks and provided this link:

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/centralbank.asp

However, the title of this page is ‘What Is a Central Bank, and Does the U.S. Have One?’, and doesn’t really go into any detail about the topic, instead talks about central banks.

I’d be forcing myself to use it, but instead I just looked for another source.

This is the problem with AI that I’m trying to avoid. It either has to be 100% right or it’s not worth using at all because then it actually takes longer.

Moving forward, I will need to use Article Muse in a different way.

Perhaps bullet point listing of ideas combined with the links.

It needs to create kind of a web of ideas that I can then pick from, instead of plotting the course for me.

Any ideas on what you’d like your ideal AI tool to do for you?
