You can see the chat here. I prompted Claude with a detailed outline, a previous draft that followed a very different structure, and a copy of “The case for ensuring powerful AIs are controlled” for reference about my writing style. The outline I gave Claude is in the Outline tab, and the old draft I provided is in the Old draft tab, of this doc.
As you can see, I did a bunch of back and forth with Claude to edit it. Then I copied to a Google doc and edited substantially on my own to get to the final product.
And I don’t think he did anything against lesswrong rules, or anything immoral really, but I still really don’t like it.
If it was up to me, we’d have a rule that every single word in your post should either be physically typed by you, or be in quotation marks.
So its fine if you copy your article into some AI and ask it to fix grammar mistakes, as long as you go and fix them yourself.
Its also fine to have a fair bit of LLM involvement in the post, even conceptual stuff and writing, as long as the finished product is typed up by you.
What way I know every single word has at least passed through the brain of the author.
I agree. I really don’t like it. Like Buck posted earlier
