I'm not a journalist, so when I was told I'd be interviewing GitHub's COO I made an AI version of them to practice on.

@hammer_mt I do a lighter version for the calls that scare me. Feed Claude the other side's writing, let it play hardball before the real thing. 25 years in business and I still get nervous. The rehearsal kills the shake.
