The Role of Insight in Writing

Sally Kohn: It makes me wonder what insight actually is. When we read a novel that we really like and we say there's something true in it, obviously the story is fictional. But it observed something about life that we perceive as deeply correct. What these large language models are essentially is every human all put together. So whatever insights people have had previously, this is all available to the language model. There's no reason that it can't put something together that's very insightful.
