writing

seeing more people talking about using llms to produce final written content (not to do research).

for me, this has been v unsatisfactory in writing anything meant to develop/communicate a new concept.

This is so sad
I think LMs can do 90% of creativity in theory, just not the top 10% which requires some ineffable genius

But the relative ease at using an LLM is that the (unique) type of genius an LLM produces will become more common, but more than that, so will the mediocrity it produces, which saddens me most

Will dig into. I do think we have lost our way on meaning. 
I shared something I read recently written in 1917 claiming our pursuit of science, which is all ‘theoretically possible to pursue’ engenders a bad mindset, either bc we stop dreaming even bigger, or bc it’s some ‘lower pleasure’ (I wasn’t sure)

There is a reason great sportsmen are often described as artists
Because they act following well-trained instinct, rather than scientific truth 

Reminded me of a recent book im reading by Rabindranath Tagore, written 1917

You, me, and Tagore seem to blend ideas around taste & craft in three distinct ways. Intriguing
