I have this notion that the better path is to identify what kinds of things are emerging and prompt to do those things better; accept it as something LLMs are going to do and treat it as something to improve on instead of something to eliminate."

The output is a bit better on blind prompting with applying the results. Here's the gist:

1. Compression artifacts — the model encoding structure implicitly

2. Attention-economy mimicry — the model trained on engagement-optimized writing

3. False epistemic confidence — the model performing knowledge it doesn't have

4. Affective prosthetics — the model simulating emotional register it can't inhabit

5. Mechanical coherence substitutes — the model managing the problem of continuity

Spot corrections are too spotty. Going higher levels with these kinds of problems seems to work better.
