“TheFutureIsDesigned” bluechecks thusly:
You: takes 2 hours to read 1 book
Me: take 2 minutes to think of precisely the information I need, write a well-structured query, tell my agent AI to distribute it to the 17 models I’ve selected to help me with research, who then traverse approximately 1 million books, extract 17 different versions of the information I’m looking for, which my overseer agent then reviews, eliminates duplicate points, highlights purely conflicting ones for my review, and creates a 3-level summary.
And then I drink coffee for 58 minutes.
We are not the same.
I want to live in the world of Hyperion, Ringworld, Foundation, and Dune.
You know, Dune.

What’s more, there’s a reason people write books. Information is best conveyed via narrative with context. You can throw all the stats you want at someone, if you don’t give them a story to tie them all together it’s just noise. That’s why we have teachers instead of just textbooks and textbooks instead of just encyclopedias
