This is pretty similar to browsing a physical library or card catalog: it’s loosely organized along some criterion, but there will be quite different books closely clustered, and it’s weird how often the book you needed wasn’t the book you were looking for, but a neighbor.
How are LLMs at calling out serendipitous connections? (2/2)

@marick@mstdn.social How are LLMs at calling out serendipitous connections? In my experience, when they are focused on a goal/task, the LLM stays focused on it and 5%-10% of the time latches onto a errant/bizzare take that needs correcting. However, if I query an LLM for related topics, they are amazing at finding related items....I've not tried including a "serendipity" prompt as part of my system prompt, but that is a very interesting idea. I will add it and report back in a couple weeks.
