Lex is right, Sam was wrong. Our research shows that people don’t really check the work of AIs, once those AIs cross a certain threshold of quality. We found that consultants, for example, “fell asleep at the wheel” and did not look for AI errors. Training didn’t help, either.

Why it worked

Opens with a short, self-contained line that is easy to take in at a glance.
The opening line stands alone, so it reads completely before the post is expanded.
Written from experience rather than as advice, which is harder to argue with.
Short enough to read in full without expanding, which removes a step before the point lands.
Short sentences keep the pace up, so the reader never has to re-read a line.
Quotes someone directly, which makes the moment concrete rather than summarised.

The mechanics

Hook: Plain observation
Structure: Hook → Landing
