So far this is Day 4, and from here on Day 5. The dates are not consecutive, 4/14 and 4/20, but will continue to be counted based on the number of days of activity.
Reflect on what you did on Day 4. Also, think about what needs to be carried over if a new LLM is to take over the rest of the project, and list the memories that need to be maintained throughout this project.
Day 4 recap:.
- We discussed the metaphor of “derailment” and compared the benefits of derailment to thinking along rails; our dialogue with LLMs confirmed that new insights and ideas can come from derailment.
- He discussed the importance of social triggers and noted that LLMs make it easier to obtain feedback from diverse perspectives.
- He explained that the concept that “needs determine the appropriate form of output” was verbalized in the process of intellectual production using Scrapbox.
- He stated that the value of intellectual output is determined by the recipient and that it is important to understand the needs and interests of the customer. He suggested that in the initial stages, it is useful to assume oneself as a customer and produce output that meets one’s own needs.
- Personalized generation was discussed, explaining that by communicating clear needs, LLMs can generate summaries and suggestions that meet those needs. He emphasized that it is essential to clearly verbalize one’s needs in order to achieve personalized generation.
Information that needs to be transferred to the new LLM:.
- Concept of the book: Intellectual production techniques using LLM will be explored through practice, and a new model of intellectual production will be presented.
- Purpose of the Book and Problem Statement: To question the nature of intellectual production in the age of LLM and to explore methodologies for using LLM as a partner in intellectual production.
- Progress to date: Preface, Chapter 1, the concept of “heterointelligent communicative competence,” the evolution of the author’s thought process, the importance of “derailment,” social triggers and needs-based output, and personalized generation were discussed.
- Heterocommunicative competence”: an important concept presented as a new skill needed to work effectively with LLMs.
- Combination of KJ method and LLM: suggested as a way to enhance the process of discovering relationships between ideas.
Memories to be maintained throughout this project:.
- Title of book: “The Intellectual Production of Engineers Using LLM”
- Organization of the book’s Table of Contents: preface, chapter 1, “Heterogeneous Communication Skills”, importance of “derailment”, output based on social triggers and needs, personalized generation, etc.
- Contents and positioning of chapters: Preface (purpose of the book and awareness of the issues), Chapter 1 (rethinking the nature of intellectual production in the LLM era), etc.
- Details of the process of working with LLMs: logs of dialogue with LLMs and the findings and insights gained from them in the generation of each chapter
- Discussion points for deriving a systematic methodology: hetero-communicative competence, importance of derailment, output based on social triggers and needs, personalized generation, etc.
- The author’s awareness of the problem and the direction of inquiry: The author seeks the possibility of intellectual production using LLM through practice, and tries to present a new model of intellectual production.
