Session with Larry Pang

Milestone session. Michael presented the first complete Threadline run like an agency lead defending creative. I pushed on one off-brand line; he traced it to voice-sample selection and fixed it the same day. We agreed the launch bar: drafts the client ships without edits, plus hard compliance rules — no price talk, ever.

Agenda

1. Michael presents the first end-to-end Threadline run
2. Voice quality review
3. Launch criteria & compliance

Discussion

• Full pipeline walk: news event detected 06:00, brand-voice draft at 06:04, three thread variants with different hooks. Presented like an agency creative review.
• I flagged one line that read generic-AI. Michael traced it to the voice-sample selector picking low-engagement tweets — fixed during the session by weighting samples by engagement.
• Agreed the launch bar: client ships drafts without edits, and the compliance layer blocks price predictions, forward-looking claims, and anything near financial advice.
