AI Builders Club Meeting Minutes | Ep. 4: Content Ideas For Days
Topic: Can AI generate smarter content topics than your marketing intern?
Meeting Agenda: Come up with your next 50 content ideas in a flash.
This week, Chase and Aaron dive into the murky waters of topic ideation. Writing content is easy. Deciding what to write is where most people drown. The duo tears into the current crop of tools, explains why they still fall short, and sketches out an AI-powered system that watches your content performance, analyzes your voice, and serves up fresh, strategic topics before you even ask.
In this session, we covered:
- Why tools like ChatGPT, Jasper, BuzzSumo, and Notion AI are helpful, but still too passive
- What an AI topic assistant should actually do: weekly briefs, format suggestions, and content gap alerts
- Ideal inputs: your past content, engagement metrics, competitor posts, audience feedback
- Ideal outputs: new content ideas with rationale, overuse warnings, and evolution tracking
- How the stack might work: OpenAI or Claude, LangChain, Pinecone, and integrations with analytics and CMS tools
- Why humans still win at brand nuance, but AI shines in pattern spotting and scale
Club Takeaway: Topic generation isn’t a one-time brainstorm – it’s a system. Build one that thinks ahead, not just reacts.
Adjourned with: “Thinking is hard. Topic generation doesn’t have to be. ”
See you at the next meeting.
