Terry M. Lee · AI Simplified Issue No. 006 This week's story I Asked Claude to Add Two Nav Links. It Found Four Things Wrong With My Site. Hi Reader, Yesterday I opened a chat with Claude with the smallest possible ask: add two links to my website's nav menu. A "Community" link to my Substack, and a "Demos/Video Tips" link to my YouTube. Two-minute job. I wasn't looking for anything else. The Ask That's it. That's the whole request. Add two nav links so people could actually find my community...

Terry M. Lee · AI Simplified Issue No. 005 This week's story I Said Yes to a Favor. AI Turned It Into Five Products. Hi Reader, This week's biggest AI win didn't come from a client project or a product launch. It came from a favor. A friend asked me to design a composition book cover for her job. Air Force themed. Blue, white, and gold. One design that had to represent four different departments — front desk, supply, housekeeping, and maintenance. I'm not a Canva expert. Left to my own tools,...

Terry M. Lee · AI Simplified Issue No. 02 This week's story I've been paying for a tool I outgrew. I just didn't know it until I stopped using it. Hi Reader, I switched from ActiveCampaign to Kit last week, mid-session, almost on a whim. I'd been on AC long enough to know every menu, every workaround, every quirk. That familiarity felt like loyalty. It wasn't. It was inertia. But the real story isn't the switch — it's what my workflow looks like now that I'm on the other side of it. How This...

Terry M. Lee · AI Simplified Issue No. 01 · July 18, 2026 This week's story I was using AI to build the wrong business faster. Hi Reader, A few months ago, I was more productive than I'd ever been in my life. AI had changed everything about how I worked. Drafts that used to take me half a day were done in an hour. Research I would have put off for a week was finished before lunch. I was building faster, outputting more, keeping up with things I'd always let slide. And I was building toward...
