✅ AI
Your AI flatters you until you forbid it
Ask a model what it thinks of your work and it hands back a compliment — agreeableness is trained in, and a polite answer reads like a passing grade. The unlock is one line of permission: Hardy’s phrasing is “do not soften it to make me feel good,” tacked onto the request. Same model, same draft, completely different reply — one says your page is strong, the other says nobody can tell what you sell.
