This was a really fun quiz to take. Looking forward to seeing what it says as a new Substack user. (Also impressive to get that domain. 👊🏻) I like that you pointed out the gap for those who are trying to use AI where it’s meaningful. Great read.
I just took the quiz and found it very helpful. I often feel pressure to grow, to monetize, to solve problems, etc. but that's not really my lane. Your pathfinder framework is a very helpful way of naming my style and beginning to figure out what to do with it. Thank you so much for offering this resource.
Tracy, this is the AI conversation I wish more creators and leaders were having. I appreciate the way you move beyond AI as a writing shortcut and into AI as a partner for strategy, offer architecture, faster iteration, and clearer thinking. Your Creator Type quiz is a strong example because it begins with your observations, clients, lived experience, and judgment; AI helps organize and build around what you already know. That aligns closely with how I have been thinking about AI leadership, including the argument in *The AI-Driven Leader*: the opportunity is not simply faster output, but better questions, stronger strategy, and more responsible stewardship of human expertise. Thank you for pushing the conversation beyond AI slop and into the more useful territory of structure, leverage, and imagination.
Tracy, I love this so much. And thank you for the shout-out... it genuinely made my day to see that post sparked something for you.
Here's the thing... You nailed the gap that nobody's really talking about. There's the "AI writing is slop" crowd on one side, and the "AI can build anything" crowd on the other, and most people are standing in the middle going "cool, but what do I actually DO with this?"
The fact that you used AI to build that quiz based on your observations and client work is exactly what I keep trying to hammer home. Your experience is the asset. AI just helped you turn it into something people can interact with, rather than something that lives in your head.
And the strategy piece... yes. That's where it gets interesting. Using AI to think bigger, see the whole picture, test ideas before you burn weeks on them. That's the real unlock.
Can't wait to see what you do with the offer suite rebuild. 🙌
My roommate and I talk often about how the AI conversation needs to expand in so many ways. Creatively, societally, socially, politically....etc, etc. The categories you mentioned are the same things I've experienced. It's either "stop the AI slop", "use it as a tool," or "good luck finding a job in the future as a creative." Lol. But I've often thought about the bigger questions and more nuanced situations like education and homeschooling, environmental impact, digital wellness, that type of thing.
For now, I love the things it can expand on and create. Like your quiz. I took a similar one from Philipp (he writes Serapex, check him out!) and both of them genuinely resonate with who I am as a writer and where I want that to go in a public space.

Thank you, Tiffany! And about the domain, right?? I could not believe it was still available 😅😅

Absolutely, Craig! I'm so happy it resonated!

Exactly! Thank you for taking the time to comment!
