CCATP #831 — Adam Engst on Reading Trains Your Internal LLM

In this fascinating discussion with Adam Engst, we discuss how he used to think that reading added information to essentially a database in his brain. Recently, though, he has started to think about his brain as a large language model, and that instead, reading is changing the weights of the model to include new information.

Here's a link to the article on tidbits.com/... where Adam explains this concept in full detail.
