Imagine chains-of-thought as first class vectors of communication, a formalization of a natural language paragraph. We could use them as frames of debate associated with any item of controversy, or any derived fact. We can patch and fork and merge them to try to make them stronger or debunk them.
In other words these sound like a great way to communicate with each other as well as AI.

- labrador 3y agoI plugged your comment into Gemini and ChatGPT Plus and recieved some interesting answers. Here's my prompt: An article was shared titled "Chain-of-Thought Reasoning Without Prompting". Please explain what this comment on the article means: "Imagine chains-of-thought as first class vectors of communication, a formalization of a natural language paragraph. We could use them as frames of debate associated with any item of controversy, or any derived fact. We can patch and fork and merge them to try to make them stronger or debunk them. In other words these sound like a great way to communicate with each other as well as AI. Gemini says your comment is different from The Socratic Method in the following ways: Emphasis on questioning: The Socratic method primarily uses questioning to challenge and provoke new insights, while chains-of-thought reasoning presents a pre-existing chain of thinking for analysis. Focus on individual vs. collective: The Socratic method typically focuses on the individual's understanding, while chains-of-thought reasoning emphasizes collective reasoning and building upon existing chains.

- all2 3y agoIt's a moderated "chain of thought". Instead of one party creating a cohesive chain of thought, it is two parties creating a chain of thought together; one asks directed questions and the other answers.

IMO, far too little effort has gone into the formal analysis of information landscapes and the efficient navigation thereof in natural language. Humans could benefit greatly from improving our ability to detect low vs high info in what we hear or read (or speak or write).
