  • The best way to choose an AI model is not by looking at models first or leaderboards, but by understanding your own unique process for doing your best work.
  • The core concept is to identify your personal “process loop” – how your thinking actually happens (e.g., a long messy brain-dump, a tight back-and-forth, or sketching and refining).
  • Once your process is clear, the question becomes: “which model helps me move through that loop faster and get to my best self?” The answer will be highly individual, not a generic recommendation.
  • Nate B. Jones offers a tool to help map your specific working style to the AI model that best fits it, reinforcing a personalized approach over universal “best” models.
