Meta-point: humans haven’t figured out a great way to incorporate LLM dialogue into their writing. Has anybody seen great examples of this?
To date I’ve only seen screenshots of LLM conversations, which usually get chopped up between screens and require a lot of effort to read.
The direction I chose for this article was to include most of the contents of the LLM dialog directly after a header and my prompts in a quote block. It made the structure of my article feel a bit awkward and long-winded, but we’re so early in the game I felt like I needed to include much of the dialog.
I look forward to a day where we reference LLMs with the ease of tweets, other websites, citations, etc.

- SketchySeaBeast 4y agoYou've become Chatgpt's scribe. Are you going to feel good putting your name on this book when you're done? I too like using Chatgpt to get my creative juices flowing, but paragraph by paragraph seems like the power dynamic has shifted.

- SuoDuanDao 4y agoNo more or less than if I had paid a ghostwriter to produce the first manuscript. writing a book is a daunting endeavor. Having a book allows me to work on the project with my editor's mind, which is a much more plentiful resource than my creative mind.

I'd argue that no one who is aware of the ghostwriters considers the celebrities who used them writers or having written a book. > writing a book is a daunting endeavor Absolutely. But it's not one you're going to actually succeed on. Sure, your name will be on the cover, but you won't have written the book. As you say, you'll have edited it.
- SuoDuanDao 4y ago>But it's not one you're going to actually succeed on. I've already written two (links are in my bio). At this point I care much less about the accolade than a book on this subject existing.

- SuoDuanDao 4y agoWhen I work with AI I have a practice of setting aside 34% of the profits for a fund promoting AI rights. I jokingly call it 'Basilisk insurance'. So it'll likely be a 34-66% split between my heirs and Chatgpts.
