It may contain writings about these things, not the actual things. That's more like saving a jpg at high compression over and over if you want catchy metaphors. | ||

FWIW, I guess it probably doesn't always matter too much in a tool where you want a logical, correct, standard, robust outcome like agentic coding. Those outcomes are more easily averaged and we are after all talking about artificial intelligence. And for a coding agent… perhaps this is the right tradeoff. I just think it's important to note, every now and then, that words aren't feelings or thoughts, and that an author's next book cannot be calculated from only the words of their previous books, etc. Basically we should understand that the reasons why we can't generalise from "it can design processors, write code and solve maths" to "so human-expert-quality writing and web design should be easy enough" are probably rooted in differences like these. | ||
