Errrf. That was poor writing on my part. I meant use the AI to critique what you have written in response to reading the suggested authors. Yes, a particularly smart critic would be better. But an LLM is easily available. | ||

I find using an AI to understand complex philosophical topics one of my most unexpected use cases. Previously, I would get stuck scrolling through wikipedia full of incredibly opaque language, that assumes a background I don't have. But I can tell a bot what my background is, and it can make an explanation that is in the right level of complexity. As an example, I'm reading a book on Buddhism, and I'm comfortable with Kant, and AI is useful for explaining to me a lot of the ideas they have as they relate to transcendental idealism (Kant). On the other hand, I still don't know what a body without organs is. |
