Writing is thinking.
It's not some marginal boring task you can skip. It's the heart of it.

It’s easy to think writing is mainly the transcription of ideas you already have—that is, until you try to write something worthwhile, and you find what you thought were saying transform into something far more interesting in the process. This skips that last step, and that is *not* an improvement.
“We plan to hire an AI rewrite specialist to ingest the reporting by Hannah and others and use AI to convert it into stories.”
The editor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer said it will use AI to ‘write’ its articles.

So, you have a logo.
I want you to run it through these tests, to see if it's an effective logo, or just a nice illustration.
Because I see so many people who reveal logos for their new, exciting thing ... and it's not fit for purpose.
And you'll learn that hard way if you don't check.
