So much fluff
Thank goodness for LLMs
>The author's core message is about breaking free from a lifelong pattern of tying self-worth to constant productivity and output, realizing that true creativity and well-being require intentional rest and "revery" (contemplation/dreaming), rather than relentless striving.

- uludag 1y agoThe author is literally an artist though. What you call fluff may be a worthwhile artistic and emotional expression. If someone stopped at this summary they would have missed out on a nice poem by Emily Dickinson for example. Oh wait, let me summarize it: > The poem describes how a prairie can be made using clover, a bee, and imagination. there, that's better. no more fluff.
- _luiza_ 1y agoOh, this is lovely! It's rare that I see such a clear cut argument for how _not_ to use llms. People do argue for and against, but usually less effectively than what you did here. Kudos to clarity!
- mre 1y agoAs a counterpoint, I quite enjoyed the writing style. Not everything has to be summarized. To me, it was more about the human experience.
