Teaching AI the KJ Method

2024-09-18 Teaching KJ method to AI” is what I should do as the next development of broad listening. This is what I should do as the next development of broad listening.

Try to instruct in natural language first before implementing as code

• The verbalization of those instructions may be beneficial for humans to learn the KJ method. We know not only the early KJ method, but also the later “thinking fireworks”.
• I used the term “teaching the KJ method” because it is easy, but more strictly speaking, it could be called “teaching a non-physical partner how to do thinking fireworks.
  • Whether we can go so far as to say “no vision” is open to consideration.

succession

• I was talking to ChatGPT on the train ride and it seemed to work out better than I thought it would.
  • Later, when I’m back in front of the PC, I’ll make a version that I did myself, organizing the logs as I go, and compare them.
  • It’s also related to [TTTC how you learned about your life choices.
  • That’s just too much stuff, and it’s hard to compare.

Summary of experiment 2024-09-18

• Can be paired with related ones.
  • Sometimes I get creative with Halcynation.
• I can title the pair.
  • Sometimes it’s like “A and B,” but sometimes it’s a nice blend.
• If all the past prompts are piled up in a context in ChatGPT, the attention will be hit by the pre-compressed prompts after compressing them with the KJ method’s naming convention.
  • There is positive value in emulating “bundling and making invisible.”
  • Aggressive erasure from context would be beneficial
• If you leave it solely to the LLMs, you’re missing out on input.
  • I think it’s the same as the monkey away.
    • LLMs (and humans) unintentionally ignore
  • I guess it’s KJ legal to check this in the program and poke at it over and over until it’s taken in.
• This time I did the initial bundling KJ method with 25 fewer sheets.
  • Maybe we could do fireworks to think alongside each other in Kozaneba.
  • I’m imagining in my brain that LLM may not be good at “think specifically” - Specific examples are low frequency So

experimental log 2024-09-18

The following is a partial pickup of the log, which was later paralleled in Kozaneba

I want to make 25 short sentences of the findings so far. First, make 5 of them as a sample to clarify the nuances of the “short sentences.”

• Sony’s focus is on providing value to customers rather than what they want.
• The Omi merchants had a business philosophy of “Sell what is good for the customer,” and valued insight into the essential needs of their customers.
• … Overall length. Sample shown.
• Sony
• What Customers Want
• Providing Customer Value
• Sell what works for your customers.
• Omi merchant
• Essential Needs … In this way, each phrase is expressed in a shorter, to-the-point form. The next step is to create 25 short sentences based on this. Yes, please make 25. … This completes the 25 short sentences. The second half tends to be more of an abstract concept. Please pick up 25 “leave the scent of the earth” as concretely as possible from the logs. … We have compiled a list of 25 cases based on specific examples and past experience.

Yes, now we will work on “pairing things that seem to be closely related”. Finally, for each of 1 to 25, pair it with the one that seems most closely related to it, but first, as an exercise, pair 1 to 5 with the one that seems most closely related to 1 to 25. Please state clearly what number you are pairing with. …

• 4: Sell what works for the customer and Proposals that look to the customer’s future (18)
  • Proposing what works for the customer is strongly associated with proposing what will work for the future needs of the customer. …

It is good. Give each pair a short title as well. …

• 4: Sell what works for the customer and future-oriented proposals
  • The importance of proposing products with the customer’s future in mind.” … They tend to be a little long, but that’s okay. Now, for 6-15, think of the number and title of the most relevant short sentence. This completes the 6-15 pairs and titles. There are some places where you see the same thing in the opposite direction, like 12 to 2. You can omit those. Continue processing on 16 to 25.

Hmmm, let’s see if we can sort out a set of titles.

• Craftsman-like organization was put on hold and organized mechanically.

There are several new stickies being born in Halcynation, w

• Q: Are you sure?
• A: That’s fine. You just thought of something and you added it. Maybe you could programmatically run a check to see if it’s included in the input set, and mark it as a new addition, or prompt for something that’s been missed.

Now let’s look back at the above list and extract only the newly-added short sentences. Number them consecutively A1-. As before, only one of the duplicates, such as 2→12 and 12→2, should be used! It’s odd that there are 7 pairs when there were originally 25. Please get them all out.

It would be easier to implement here in Python instead of the prompt.

That’s down from 25 to 16. That’s good. Now let’s repeat the same steps to find the bears from A1 to A16, give them a title, and number them from B1 to

B1. attitude as a symbol of Sony and innovation “The synergy between Sony’s development of the Walkman and the creation of a market through technological innovation.” Pair: A1 (Sony and Walkman development) + A13 (synergy between innovation and market creation)

B2. future needs and essential problem solving “Proposals that look to the customer’s future and solve their essential needs.” Pair: A6 (essential needs and problem solving) + A11 (future-oriented proposals and projected needs)

B3. providing customer value and professional challenge “Build trust professionally through value delivery and challenge.” Pair: A3 (Delivering Customer Value and Providing Professional Value) + A10 (Challenges for Sustainable Growth)

B4. a willingness to respond to the hidden needs of customers “A commitment to earning the trust of customers by responding to their unacknowledged needs.” Pair: A2 (needs customers don’t realize they want) + A12 (make customers aware of hidden value and gain their trust)

B5. efforts to create markets and spread value Attitude to “create markets and promote products of value.” Pair: A8 (attitude toward creating markets and new markets) + A15 (efforts to promote valuable products)

B6. business philosophy based on trust ‘A sales and customer partnering attitude that builds trust.’ Pair: A5 (Omi Merchants and Trust-Building Sales) + A9 (Customer Orientation Difficulties and Invisible Value)

B7. future-oriented challenges and innovations “Market changes through technological innovation and a willingness to continue to take on challenges.” Pair: A7 (future needs and market changes due to technological innovation) + A16 (the company’s attitude to constantly create new markets)

Now we have seven pairs from A1 to A16, numbered B1 to B7, and titled them.

• There’s a lot of extra w
  • Somehow they’ve created an abstract front page and a front page shorthand.
  • I’ve gone to the trouble of putting a nameplate on it and compressing the information, but with ChatGPT, I’m seeing all the logs, so I’m getting something other than the nameplate again.

Excellent. Now, in the same way, using B1 to B7 as input, find a pair, give it a title, and give it a sequential number from C1 to C1. sony’s innovation and solutions to future challenges Sony’s innovation and technological innovation to create markets, future-focused needs and problem-solving.” Pair: B1 (Sony and its attitude as a symbol of innovation) + B2 (future needs and solving essential problems)

C2. challenge to provide value and build trust “Challenge ourselves by providing customer value and an attitude that builds trust.” Pair: B3 (Provide customer value and professional challenge) + B4 (Respond to customers’ hidden needs)

C3. business philosophy of market creation and trust A business philosophy based on market creation efforts and trust.” Pair: B5 (market creation and efforts to spread value) + B6 (business philosophy based on trust)

C4. future-oriented challenge and innovation chain “The company’s attitude and innovation to continue challenging market changes.” Pair: B7 (Challenges and Innovations for the Future) + no other pairs left

Four pairs are now formed from B1 to B7 and numbered consecutively as C1 to C4.

Please connect these four short sentences from C1 to C4 to create a sentence Sony’s innovation is driven by the collaboration between market creation through technological innovation and future-oriented needs and issue resolution. Identifying hidden needs that customers are unaware of and continuing to provide value is a professional challenge and an important factor in building customer trust. In addition, our efforts to create markets and promote valuable products are rooted in a business philosophy based on trust. Furthermore, future-oriented challenges and technological innovations demonstrate a chain of innovation attitudes that allow companies to continue to respond to market changes.

This text is a comprehensive view of the importance of value creation and challenge, including the philosophies of Sony and the Omi merchants.
