llms are powerful tools that remarkably expand at least your reach if not your grasp. if you are using them to one-shot some bullshit email, you are using them wrong. if you are not using them at all for aesthetic reasons, you are making a profound mistake

i use them to: - sand down my raw thoughts - revisit past social interactions to surface any nuances/patterns - run simulations of novel situations so i know how to navigate them when they actually happen. it’s a sandbox for decision-making and strategizing in the form of a text adventure game

more people just need to take an “observe a master craftsman” approach to learning how to use LLMs. the subtlety lies in the framing of the question and that can’t be discovered on your own very easily
