I keep wishing for a public place to put a formatted version of my LLM threads. I have long conversations with LLMs that usually result in some kind of documentation, tutorial, or dataset. Many of them are relatively novel, but I haven't created a place for them yet.

And no, I wouldn't think an HN post is it either.. I'm just saying, there should be a good place to post the output of good questions asked iteratively.

Have you ever read someone else's conversation with an LLM?

Not the op but I barely even read my own conversations with an LLM. ChatGPT was always so verbose even when I told it to be succinct.

Claude is a bit better but still prone to rambling.

I hinted at "formatted" and "good".. add the words "curated" or "edited".

Well, you haven't really answered the question.

I think that if you actually try reading someone else's conversation with LLM, you'll find out that it's less exciting than it seems.

For the one who has the conversation the excitement comes mostly from the ability to steer it the way you want. Reader doesn't have this ability, so they are just forced to endure the excessive wordiness, that is so typical for most LLMs.

If you learned something interesting, then why not express this knowledge in a normal article/blogpost? What advantage does a conversation between you and LLM has over just a normal text or, perhaps, text with pictures, diagrams, maybe some interactive illustrations etc

Make a blog? Hardly a hard problem there mate.

If you can’t even be arsed doing that how much value is there, really?

Personally the only thing less interesting to me than someone else’s conversations with an LLM is hearing about someone else’s dream they had last night but you never know, some people may be interested.

Thanks for slagging.

But I was thinking less blog and more like an LLM research notebook, à la Jupyter. Jupyter for LLM prompts, outputs, refinements.

		No slagging meant, sorry. Reading back it does seem a bit like that you are right.

Simon Willison published something for turning Claude Convos into something publishable. [1] I haven't tried it, so cannot speak to the ergonomics.

Where to post it? Any blog site, probably a good few Show HN too. Will anyone read it? I haven't read anyone else's, I'm more inclined to dock them reputation for suggesting I read their Ai session. Snippets of weird things shared on socials were interesting to me early on, but I'm over that now too.
