ideas. like what enormous percent of writing is just putting someone else's ideas in your own words and thinking you wrote something. 90%? 95% it's literally all from somewhere else

Ngl it's pretty helpful to have the LLM precisely restate ideas for me in parsimonious and professional language. Especially with voice mode. Like you can just go off female style and talk for a while trying to make a point and then it is shockingly good at summarizing it succinctly and cleanly

I thought some of my thoughts were novel and original until llms made it 1000x faster to do searches and literature reviews across the massive electronic archive. Now I know everything worth saying has already been said.

Same. I have a novelty ranking system I use due to this. Sometimes I'll find something that scores high, but then I use the deep research tool and find someone just published something last year saying the same thing. Whenever you delude yourself into thinking you found something novel make sure to run it through the deep research tool, and if it survives that put it through a long codex ultra run and it will immediately put you in your place. And if it survives that and is still novel, then there is probably something wrong with the position once you subject it to more scrutiny.

right but researching literature you haven't read is pointless in the context of trying to contribute. it's fine for entertainment, but in that case thinking you have some novel idea about it is retarded on its face and you dont need an llm to tell u ur retarded
