AI, Nextdoor, and Transparency

Since transparency is something I frequently ask for from others, it's only fair that I offer the same.

Yes, I use AI to create many of my posts on Nextdoor and #NiravTolia.

What I don't do is type:

"Hey AI, write something bad about Nextdoor."

What I do is provide my own thoughts, opinions, observations, questions, and experiences, then ask AI to help organize them into something more readable.

Think of it more like:

"Here are my thoughts about Nextdoor. Help me write this clearly."

After that, I use additional tools to review grammar, structure, and context.

I also use AI-generated illustrations and cartoons. That's not because I'm hiding anything—it's because my artistic abilities peak somewhere around stick figures. If you've ever seen me try to draw, you'd immediately understand why AI became involved.

For me, AI is about productivity and efficiency. I can spend hours staring at a keyboard, trying to perfect the wording, or I can use modern tools to communicate ideas more effectively while still ensuring the underlying thoughts are my own.

The opinions are mine.

The questions are mine.

The experiences are mine.

The tools help me present them.

I wanted to put that out there and dispel any assumptions about how my content gets created.
