Follow-up questions they answered

Can AI-developed software maintain human authenticity in creative work?

Is it possible to turn an innate, non-linear creative process into a system?

How does Vision Software handle feature requests for ADHD or creative visionaries?
Keira noted that as a creative visionary with ADHD, she appreciated how quickly Dan could implement new ideas. For example, when she requested a button to add specific questions to a book arc, the feature was completed almost immediately. — Keira Brinton
