One use of LLMs that I haven't seen mentioned before is to use them as a sounding board for your own ideas.
By discussing your concept with an LLM, you can gain fresh perspectives through its generated responses.
In this context, the LLM's actual comprehension is irrelevant. The purpose lies in its ability to spark new thought processes by prompting you with unexpected framings or questions.
Definitely recommend trying this trick next time you're writing something.
@yogthos maybe useful - but I worry you might open up to them, and the content of your discussion will inevitably be subverted by advertising/surveillance companies like Meta. Tarot cards are cheaper, don’t leak innermost dialogue, and don’t have rapacious energy demands.
@M0CUV that's only a problem if you use online serves, it's pretty easy to run models locally nowadays if your computer is relatively recent. I use gpt4all and it works great https://github.com/nomic-ai/gpt4all
