Every day, I understand a little more why the ancient philosophers would talk to people for a while… then wandered off to live alone in caves.

Kids today will never understand how hard the Knight Rider intro went🚘

That theme still hits different.

Students without access to LLMs are 2 to 8 times more creative than students with access.

That is the finding of a new paper comparing 2,200 college admissions essays written by humans before ChatGPT with essays generated by GPT-4.

The key point is not individual creativity. GPT-4 can write well, sometimes better than individual students. The problem is collective creativity.

Each new human essay added new semantic territory. New ideas. New angles. New experiences. New combinations.

Each new GPT-4 essay added much less.

The authors call this the diversity growth rate: how much novelty each additional text contributes to the collective pool of ideas.

Humans kept expanding the pool. GPT-4 made the pool converge.

Even when the authors pushed GPT-4 to be more creative, changed parameters, or used chain-of-thought prompting, the homogenizing effect remained.

This is the real danger of AI in education.
Not that students will write worse.
That everyone will write the same.

“They were so occupied with whether or not they *could*, no-one stopped to ask if they *should*” - Jurassic Park

This is how I feel about AI.

[Beyond the Cosmic Veil @ClassicalAegis]

Civilization is drowning in mediocrity and starving for Beauty.

It is one of the things which reminds a civilization that life is worth living.

Cathedrals, poetry, music, sculpture, architecture, gardens, great stories are civilizational necessities.

A society which stops striving for beauty eventually forgets what it is striving for at all.
