LLMs as sounding boards (lemmy.ml)

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.

I've found them to be helpful in that regard. I find it's really helpful when I want to express some concept and I can feed my half baked idea to a chat bot, and it can expand on it, and that helps me flesh out the idea more.
