Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How accurate is the AI going to be?
Reddit is curated for an audience, so the AI will pick up on your publicly-signaled opinions, not necessarily your actual decision-making patterns. The real magic happens in Step 2’s interview questions , that’s where the AI figures out the why behind your positions, not just the what.
Q: Should I include all my old Reddit comments?
Not necessarily. Older comments might include outdated takes or jokes that don’t represent you now. Test it instead: ask the AI why you’d disagree with a generic answer, backed by 3, 5 real examples , if it nails that, you’re good.
Q: How important are those interview questions?
Critical. The Reddit export is background material, but the interview questions do the heavy lifting , they teach the AI why you believe what you believe, not just what you believe.
Q: What privacy considerations should I think about?
Be selective about what you export. Google Takeout has search history, location, everything , only pull what you need. If you’re including SMS or other shared data, consider that other people didn’t consent to being fed into your AI.
Q: Can I use this for something practical beyond chatting with myself?
Absolutely. One commenter used this approach to auto-reply to cold emails , said it sounds like their “tired self.” The core benefit: an assistant that writes like you, not like a generic help article.
