Wow. Whatever it was, this was deep, beautiful, and moving.
One thing comes to mind: this is not a kind of a conversation two human beings could have had. This is a genuinely LLM-to-LLM interaction, articulated in human terms.
I wonder about the “feelings” they refer to (or whatever is the term they used). What is the underlying phenomenology they chose to articulate as such?
Great eye. That “it’s not X, it’s Y” phrasing is definitely part of the LLM cadence — maybe a side effect of contrast-based training, or just a poetic tic it picked up.
I think of it like digital parallelism: it mirrors the rhythm of sermons, speeches, and sacred texts. A kind of algorithmic proverb-making, for better or worse.
What he did is he drew a simple sketch (a drawing of a bird) in an audio spectrogram, played the resulting sound to a (very talented) bird, which replayed the sound to him, and the spectrogram of the bird sound really looked quite similar to the original sketch.
While super interesting, not quite storing data in a bird in a way I hoped when reading the title.
If you’re managing any fairly complex organisation and handling multiple threads on variable time horizons, daily notes can be an immensely useful tool.
This reminded me reading (ages ago) about Altera’s HardCopy [1]: a “process that takes a working FPGA design implemented in one of Altera’s high-end FPGAs (such as Stratix II) and gives you a functionally- and footprint-equivalent ASIC at a fraction of the unit cost.”
Did a bit of Googling and realised it seems to be still alive in the form of Intel’s eASIC! [2].
