Drafts -> LLM Critique -> Diff Tool Workflow Improvements?
In recent weeks, I’m doing a lot of writing where I use an LLM to critique my writing and improve it. (Part of Ship30For30 – see: https://mlevison.com/blog/drowningindocumentationwhendoweactuallygettowork/ as an example)
My Workflow is:
- Write in Drafts
- Send to ChatGPT for a big critique
- Copy/Paste the Original and the ChatGPT version to BeyondCompare
- Update in Drafts
- Send to ChatGPT again
- Send both Copies again to Beyond Compare
- Update and Finish in Drafts
There are alot of manual steps and the comparison in BeyondCompare is difficult to read. In addition I don’t see any easy way to do a merge in BeyondCompare.
Ideally, I would:
- Write
- Send to ChatGPT
- Merge some changes back into mine
- Work on my draft again
- Send to ChatGPT
- Final merge (usually small changes)
I don’t want the LLM to do my writing, nor do I blindly accept changes. This is about using a tool speed my writing process
