Do you really want five minutes of audio of me rambling, then some instructions for how to split it up and organise it?

Plenty of people make LLMs make text longer, but writing a short accurate text with the essential points is much harder.

What is the difference between you putting your 5 minute monologue into the LLM to summarize it versus me doing it?

  • I know what I'm trying to say, so I can sanity check the output. You can't, unless you listen to the monologue.

    That's why I disagree with people that say "just give me whatever you gave the LLM." That's only useful if you, the writer of the prompt, have no intention of looking at the LLM output before sending it.
