In this episode, a deep dive in to my latest article Primed and Prompted: How I Tricked Myself—and My AI. Here is an extract:

"Primes" and "prompts" fundamentally shape perception and behavior by acting as subtle cues or inputs that guide how information is processed and what kind of response is generated, whether in human minds or #AI systems Although their underlying mechanisms differ, their effects are "uncannily similar.

Insight:

In both cases, whether prompting machines or priming minds, the process involves "engineering a response space" by "shaping, intentionally or not, the bounds of what can be said or thought next". Both systems are, in a sense, "predictive engines, responding to prior information in patterned ways". The author realized that generative #AI is not just a "mirror of data" but "a mirror of cognition," highlighting how "much of what we call 'truth' is contingent on framing, and how easily we can fall into echo chambers". The more precisely a question is asked, the "more likely we are to hear what we want to hear".
