Is Claude Code our new comms AI writing bestie?

             

Hey,

Here’s this week’s group chat drop 👇️ 

🤖 AI writing partner of your dreams? Helen Kupp (my former Slack coworker, now leading Women Defining AI) dropped a insight-packed post on how Claude Code might be the best AI writing buddy. She even shares a step-by-step template to getting set up. Who’s trying this with me?

🐒 Internal comms besties: Mark your calendars. Yours truly is joining ContactMonkey’s CommsConnect event on change management, employee experience, and AI. Virtual, free, and bound to give good takeaways.

🎙 Your turn: who should go on Under Embargo? Becca Chambers wants your nominations for upcoming podcast guests. Time to put your dream lineup in the comments. (OTR members, you’ll get the inside scoop from the hosts themselves in our upcoming Special Event!)

✨ Stay tuned: Off the Record membership reopens Monday for one week only. As member Pam Morris puts it: “We can be badass communicators and also care about developing each other.” Green flag!

🍌 Just for fun: Google’s Nano Banana image generator has me designing Off the Record collectibles. Never coming to a store near you… but I regret nothing.

Just in time for membership to reopen next week :)

Chat soon,
Gab Ferree
Founder & Your Comms BFF, Off the Record

PS: Last week’s most-clicked was Leah’s Jobs List packed with 110+ comms jobs.

There's so much hardware in their house that the guest bathroom mouthwash holder is a championship trophy. Normal. Unfortunately, my sports prowess begins and ends with loving to watch. I've never broken 100 on the course...

Hey besties, Here’s what had my group chats lighting up this week. 🤖 PR for Your AI: I've long been a proponent of "doing PR for your AI" program. Basically meaning, you need to be talking about how you're automating rote work and doing more strategic work with AI. Two things on this stuck out for me this week: One CEO literally said it: “If someone came to me and said ‘hey I...
Delayed accountability, swift action
Hey besties, A departure from our normal links-based newsletter this week. We’ll dive into how two comms teams responded to allegations of harm against children. One acted immediately. The other waited until they had no choice. ✊ First: United Farm Workers and Cesar Chavez The New York Times published a harrowing, explosive account of rape and abuse allegations of minors against Cesar Chavez, t...
