alt Hacker NewsAn aspect of LLMs that I like is the specificity in word choice. One well defined word can be an alias for a couple sentences of explanation that human might not have pulled out of the air in that moment.
It reminds me of the wheel of emotions. If people absorb a wider palette of words communication might benefit. https://www.isu.edu/media/libraries/counseling-and-testing/d...
This is a fair point. When people talk about LLM writing they're always picking on its visible tics and clear flaws. It's a lot more uncomfortable to talk about the things it does better than most of us. There is a lot of precision in how they choose words and phrasing, especially top models like Opus. Lately I've had Opus explain some things to me I've never really been able to grasp otherwise, in fairly concise conversations.
