In an increasingly prompting driven world, guiding and steering through natural language becomes the primary interface. Which means -- clearly articulating anything in words, in writing is the crux of everything So in this world, what do you do? You read - you read and read and read then the writing just emerges almost as if by accident

And then - you realize, wait it always has been. Always has been the case - that everything has been word driven from the beginning, whether orally or not, it's always been driven by force behind the words, by the narrative, and it's been about articulating that drive in a way, translated through words

I disagree, my friend. While depth + breadth of reading ofc helps a writer become themselves, the communication muscle must be flexed and stretched and torn to strengthen Great film does not come from hours of watching Great music does not come from hours of listening Why would great writing be any different?

There are words that create strange attractors in both an LLM self creating Embedding space and the human mind. They work geometrically and linguistically. I think this is the merge between Tractatus Wittgenstein (language IS reality) and late Wittgenstein (shifting contextual meaning). My mind metaphor for it is the Blanket from I Heart Huckabees but as an n dimensional vector map. This allows for consciousness to be construed by two different types of intelligences collaborating on true understanding and recognition.

True! AI can take you to some new amazing and beautiful vistas, but you gotta know the general county you want to get to.

When does the writing come? Is it after a life long time of reading and reading or a short time?

I was just thinking yesterday maybe LLM's aren't that dumb, if you think about it, we also reason and learn and express ourselves through natural language

I'm actually not sure that the act of writing itself will be that valuable. articulating your thoughts verbally in a concise and clear manner (like a good manager/leader does) will be where the leverage is. people will most likely be verbally prompting multiple specialised agents simultaneously, not typing detailed prompts with a keyboard lots of reading is still the key though. those who understand the right questions to ask (and how to ask them) will have a distinct advantage

💯 the best writers are voracious readers who've built up pattern recognition and continually fine tune it.
