Can I tell my llm to read your llms blogpost and email me a summary?
xnx
> I can now ask Claude to research a topic, write a well-structured blog post with proper HTML formatting, categorise it appropriately, and publish it directly to my blog—all in a single conversation.

The blog post will contain no more useful information than was in the original prompt. Post that instead of some cached/point-in-time output.

When they titled this, did they think “what concept will HN dislike the most?“? :)
(Excuse snark; commenting on fact we prob appreciate human-published content)

Knowing that Claude is doing the heavy lifting, why would I want to read your blog vs asking Claude?

"just let me read the prompt, not the output" attitude should become more common

imagine building a whole MCP server to automate copy-paste from ChatGPT window into Wordpress editor and clicking Submit button

Admittedly that would take about twenty minutes with Claude to build it.

What us relationship between tool and mcp? Mcp is also a tool right ? Everything can be a tool.

Oh there’s a way down to go yet… a long way to go.
Claude, please create an image of a man looking down at a fresh grave on a bleak overcast autumn day, in the style of a political cartoon. On the headstone is the epitaph “Blogosphere, killed by LLMs”.
Take this image and post it on my blog with an appropriate title.
