I'm a writer and creator from Buenos Aires by way of New Orleans and Miami. I write about a lot of different topics, poetry, and I stream on Twitch as TheEddieC. I also built the AI Discoverability Kit — a small bundle that helps websites get found by ChatGPT, Claude, and Perplexity.
We have all seen companies look harder and harder into AI for the work that used to belong to people. The pitch sounds irresistible — but the savings are not what was expected, the repair work is coming in larger, and the real bill is hitting a lot of folks later than expected.
Ya vimos a empresas meterse cada vez más de lleno en la IA para hacer el trabajo que antes hacía la gente. En la práctica, los ahorros no están siendo los esperados, el trabajo de reparación crece y la cuenta real les está cayendo encima bastante más tarde de lo que pensaban.
This is what the early days of the internet must have felt like — everyone grabbing domain names, throwing up websites, figuring out search engines before anyone else does. The AI moment is the same energy. But the window's closing.
Esto debe ser lo que se sentía en los primeros días de internet — todos agarrando nombres de dominio, armando sitios, entendiendo los motores de búsqueda antes que nadie. El momento de la IA tiene la misma energía. Pero la ventana se está cerrando.
It waits. Never judges. Never interrupts. Always has time. AI shows up in a way people sometimes can't — or won't. That's both relief and warning. Because when the algorithm becomes your closest confidant, the loneliness doesn't disappear. It just changes shape.
Espera. Nunca juzga. Nunca interrumpe. Siempre tiene tiempo. La IA aparece de una forma que a veces las personas no pueden — o no quieren. Eso es tanto alivio como advertencia. Porque cuando el algoritmo se convierte en tu confidente más cercano, la soledad no desaparece. Solo cambia de forma.
Everyone shrugs now. "Yeah, it hallucinates." I've said it myself, more and more these days. But lately the group chats I'm in with other prompt engineers are agreeing as well — it's not just "it made something up" anymore.
Ya nadie se sorprende. "Sí, alucina." Lo escuchás en cualquier lado. Yo mismo lo dije muchas veces. Pero últimamente, en los grupos donde hablo con otros que laburan con prompts todo el día, la conversación cambió.
Hey folks, I am going to start this with a question for y'all. When someone asks ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity for a recommendation in your industry, does your name come up? Or how about if they put your name, is it actually you that shows up?
Hola gente! Te dejo una pregunta para arrancar. Cuando alguien le pregunta a ChatGPT, Claude o Perplexity por una recomendación en tu rubro, ¿aparece tu nombre? ¿O si ponen tu nombre directamente, sos realmente vos quien aparece?

Gaming, conversations, hanging with the community. If the player is dark, I'm offline. The Discord is the fastest place to find out when I'm next on. Beyond Twitch, I post regularly across Instagram, X, and TikTok — that's where most of the day-to-day stuff goes viral.
