How To Write With An LLM
Thomas, in a piece about writing with LLMs, demonstrates his personal LLM copyediting tool and provides a prompt for building a similar one. He also shared his system prompt on Hacker News. Another author outlines two rules for using LLMs to improve writing without compromising originality, suggesting a "writing workshopping tool" with features like highlighting, sidebar commentary, and revision tracking. This author also advises against blindly accepting all LLM copyediting suggestions, emphasizing the importance of maintaining one's unique voice.
This report uniquely offers a prompt to build a personal LLM copyediting tool, unlike other discussions that focus on general principles.
