‼️One Big Thing You Can Do With AI
Most newsletters make the same mistake with industry news: they summarize what happened, add two sentences of obvious commentary, and hit send.
That is not insight. That is a press release wearing your logo.
AI can help you move faster, but the real advantage is when you use it to find the angle beneath the headline. Instead of asking AI to summarize the news, ask it to identify the consequences, challenge the obvious take, and connect the story to what your audience should do next.
How it works:
What to try: Give AI an industry article and ask it to generate several original angles based on impact, opportunity, risk, and practical action.
Why it matters (for you): Your readers can get news anywhere. They stay subscribed to you because you help them understand what it means.
Outlaw POV: Speed is useful, but perspective is the product. Do not compete to be the first person repeating the headline. Be the person who explains why it matters before everyone else figures that part out.
💸Your 60-Second AI Win
The next time a major story drops in your industry, do not stare at a blank page trying to invent a brilliant option.
Drop the article into AI and make it work through the story from several directions. Then choose the angle that best matches your experience, your audience, and your point of view.
The Goal: Turn one piece of industry news into an original newsletter commentary that informs readers, adds a distinct perspective, and gives them something useful to do.
The Tool: Your favorite AI writer OR the Social Media Content Forge in The Outlaw AI Toolkit.
The Prompt:
I am writing an email newsletter for [describe your audience].
Below is an industry news article or summary:
[PASTE ARTICLE OR NEWS SUMMARY]
Help me turn this into original commentary rather than a basic summary.
First, identify the five most important facts from the story.
Then generate five possible commentary angles:
What most people are missing
The practical impact on my audience
A contrarian or unexpected perspective
The biggest opportunity created by this news
The biggest risk or mistake to avoid
For each angle, explain why it would be valuable to my audience.
Then write a short newsletter draft using the strongest angle. Open with a compelling hook, briefly explain the news, share a clear original point of view, and end with one practical action the reader can take.
Keep the writing bold, conversational, specific, and free of corporate jargon. Do not invent facts. Clearly flag anything that needs verification.
💪Go Deeper
This gets even more powerful when you build a repeatable system for monitoring news, spotting the right stories, finding original angles, and turning them into newsletters before the conversation goes stale.
That is the kind of workflow the Outlaw AI Toolkit is built for: less staring at a blank page, more publishing sharp ideas while they still matter.
