@razmakhin Started doing something like this a couple months ago. Constantly having to readjust the workflow after each session. The number of iterations this requires is sometimes exhausting, but hoping it's worth it in the long run.

@tunguz Potato, potahto. Whatever it is we do, the LLMs fail at.

Human brains can thrive on a fraction of information gorged on by LLMs. We are also far more energy efficient.
