alt Hacker NewsIn a lot of my AI assisted writing, the prompt is an order of magnitude larger than the output.
Prompt: here are 5 websites, 3 articles I wrote, 7 semi-relevant markdown notes, the invitation for the lecture I'm giving, a description of the intended audience, and my personal plan and outline.
Output: draft of a lecture
And then the review, the iteration, feedback loops.
The result is thoroughly a collaboration between me and AI. I am confident that this is getting me past writer blocks, and is helping me build better arcs in my writing and lectures.
The result is also thoroughly what I want to say. If I'm unhappy with parts, then I add more input material, iterate further.
I assure you that I spend hours preparing a 10_min pitch. With AI.

Great example. Just give me the links you would give to the LLM. I also have an LLM and can use it if I want to, or I can read the links and notes. But I have zero interest in reading or hearing a lecture that you yourself find too tedious to write.
Because it’s not totally clear from your comment: what part are you contributing in this process?
