Chances are, it's something that could be automated with AI.

I remember the time I was trying to build on X, having seen the tons of people getting success on the platform.

I was stuck doing repetitive tasks, spending hours manually posting and engaging.

Hours of my day, all spent on doing low-leverage activities that ended up getting a few tens or hundreds of views.

I thought I was going to have to do that forever... Until I built an AI system to automate it all.

Here’s how I did it this time:

I understood everything I needed to start automating the process (the inputs, the trigger, the steps, the outputs, the recurrences, and the test points)
I set up the inputs (content templates, stories from my past for worldbuilding and PERSONAL branding, other content from my newsletter)
I set up the function (made the workflow activate daily at certain times of the day, and how it works is that it randomly pulls a story from Airtable, and some valuable content linked to that story, and then puts them together in some value-giving post)
I reaped the rewards of the outputs (I get to post content without ever touching my phone)

You see, everything can be summed up in terms of inputs, functions and outputs. With better inputs and higher ROI functions, you'll get incredible outputs.

If you want better outputs, work on your inputs and functions.
