Makes you think:

One thing I find fascinating about LLMs is that they reveal how much of the quality of our relationships comes down to our capacity to be open and prompt others in a good way. Here we have, for the first time, millions of people having conversations with the precise same entity (Claude, ChatGPT), and they are having wildly different experiences—some hate it, find it stupid and boring, others get it to say and do fantastic things.

This is true of interacting with people, too (though of course I’m not saying interacting with an LLM is anything like interacting with a person)—the quality of a relationship has a whole lot to do with your skill in prompting/asking the right question/providing good context and space for the other. But previously it was tempting to assume that differences people experience had more to do with some people being lucky in getting to interact with more interesting people vs others only had met boring people. Though that of course is also a factor.
