On making: https://substack.com/home/post/p…
A summary of the project in podcast form: https://substack.com/home/post/p…For context
When LLMs became popular, I started questioning them about their inner workings to clear up some doubts I had. This led to the first session, which I wanted to save for later reading, where I asked the LLM to write an article about our discussion. Once the article was written, I asked the LLM to edit it and clarify some concepts that I felt it had not understood properly. This led me to create more articles and archive the collection on Substack.The process
These articles are long-form 'shower thoughts'. When I have a topic that I've been thinking about, I sit down and explain the topic and angle to an LLM. Then I check the references I have chosen to make sure they are correct. I ask for feedback and pushback. Sometimes I discover other topics or views that I chase down. The conversation also allows me to check whether I have articulated my ideas clearly. After a one to two-hour session, I ask the LLM to write down what we have discussed in the form of an article. The more articles I have as a reference, the less I have to correct, as they now understand my major concepts and tone better.I've never really been interested in the craft of writing; that's why I prefer using LLMs. What I enjoy is the discussion and organising my thoughts into something I can come back to later. The "Made *with*" tag wasn't meant a disclaimer but as an invitation. It looks like it's done its job.

- this is such a cool idea, I have tons that I have in the form of the first part, a back and forth conversation inviting a discussion and to poke holes in my hyp_niko
- ...hypothesis to see if it holds up to scrutiny but more importantly for me tp solidify my thinking. Just brilliant that you took it to the next step of an arti_niko
- "solidify my thinking" is well put, that's my same intention.palimpsest
- fascinating. Yet the writing itself had a real tone to it. It wasn't just the ideas that I was drawn to, but the artful way they were presented.bogue
- either way. I think the idea is poignant and somehow more terrifying the Skynet scenario.bogue
- It's also a way more coherent and chilling account of what might come to pass than whatever this ex Anthropic research Jacob Coxon has been going on about.bogue
- Thanks. I kinda found the whole ‘made with Claude’ bit funny as I know you can be tongue in cheek with the way you approach your musingsIanbolton
- Ultimately, I do this too. I sat for an evening chatting to Claude about all my issues with addiction and chronic illnesses...Ianbolton
- I had so much stuff in my head that I was trying to connect the dots and throw away unnecessary thoughts. I said to my partners, have a read of this...Ianbolton
- In which she responded with ‘I’m not reading anything to do with AI’ in which I said ‘I was having a conversation, which I’d rather have with you as I...Ianbolton
- Don’t want to go out with an AI chatbot’ which ultimately pissed her off. I’m still not sure she saw the benefit in what I was doing. But i see your perspectiveIanbolton
- And this is why AI is a better sparring partner.palimpsest

One of AI’s Fiercest Critics Says All the Doom Talk Is ‘Meant to Distract Us’
She’s written an upcoming book about her experiences, titled Deep Unlearning: The Rise of AI and the Radicalization of a Tech Idealist (expected to ship early next year).
- That's a real low IQ take. That's like me selling knives and promoting the fact they might be used for mass slaughter to hide the fact you might cut your fingernewcunt
- This quote seals the deal in the low IQ assessment...newcunt

Where The Fun IS
My friend Gerard working at Burning Man this year... he's sent some incredible photos of the builds... and been setting up everything for some Silicon Valley elites who have so much money they don't even know how to eat normal food at an event in the middle of nowhere.
- Tbf, I wouldn't know how to eat normal food out in the middle of nowhere either.Nairn
- more pics or NDA?Squiddy
- Gerard's got a funky 3rd eyeKrassy
- When I'm thinking about what a person from Burning Man actually looks like, your friend Gerard is the exact poster child for Burning Man :)utopian
- @Nairn, yah, so these people were flying in lobster and caviar, flying people to LA multiple times to pick up specialty food and bev...canoe
- I'll post more. Postimages bites. Does imgur work again on QBN?canoe
- "They all had weird plastic faces..."canoe
- And no photos of them. Pretty strict.canoe
- oh right! read that a religious group got booted for taking pics among other thingsSquiddy
- Brilliant!! If he paid us enough money I’d happily bring my culinary skills to the desert. Could set up a nice little restaurantIanbolton
- Yeah, I don’t think the energy at Burning Man mixes particularly well with people who make fun of 9/11. Do you?canoe
- I wonder is the name Burning Man offensive to burning men?mort_
