This is a pretty good rundown of why LLMs aren't necessarily connected to truth. Something plausible and internally consistent or coherent can be false, and simply thinking about it more doesn't lead one to truth, which requires empirical testing and verification (i.e., science).

The problem with AI may not be that machines are growing more intelligent. It may be that we are becoming increasingly skilled at amplifying a highly capable, but limited form of cognition.

Of course, mechanics still matter. They make writing readable and accessible to a particular audience, platform, or format. But that part of the process involves iteration, refinement, and organization—areas where AI can assist significantly.
000
Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
It creates a stronger impact on the reader because the words remain connected to something that has actually been seen, felt, and understood. That is taking the scientific attitude in writing, where the expression remains faithful, subservient, and secondary to the original perception.
000
Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
Really great writers, however, ground their writing in the observation of reality, and ensure that their expression is precise and faithful to what they see. This kind of writing, where observation comes first and thinking and writing follow, has a different quality.
000
Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
You can be a writer if you love living in the world of words. A new thought expressed in an original way delights you. But that is also why many writers can become mesmerised by and lost in their own thinking, and become disconnected from reality.

Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 23/08/2026
AI can help with the mechanics of content, but not with its soul. Often, when we discuss writing, we focus on mechanics. Mechanics have their place, but their importance is limited. Now it can be handled by AI. We therefore need to focus on what matters more - the interiority from which it emerges.

Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
Sure I can agree to that. The only disagreement I have is that writing is not the generative process. Its not the origin it is a medium of expression. And refining, editing, rewriting is thinking, an exercise of firing your neurons as you say.
000
Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
Yes that is thinking. Refining the making sure the words accurately express and describe the insight is all part of the thinking process.
000
Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
Another point is that sometimes errors can be introduced in the process of refining and we can go astray from the original insight, as often happens when you keep editing with AI. Same process with thinking. You keep trying to improve the expression and you land somewhere totally different
000
Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
I would say the premise is not based on insight. Insight is not concocted or put together by thought, but thought can be used to logically communicate an insight. Logic can be adjusted but if the insight isnt there then we can keep refining forever
100
Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
And there is also the question of making the writing accessible and understandable to others, applying conventions, and improving logic, flow etc. But isn't this more part of the process of editing than writing? Shouldn't we say editing/ refining is thinking? And writing is seeing, perceiving?
200
Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
That order isn't necessarily correct, unless you mean forcing yourself to think through the act of writing. Writing or any other form of expression is a means to express what you already feel-think and need to express through words or images. Writing is the transference of thinking onto a screen
200
Ashutosh Ghildiyal @ashutoshg.bsky.social · 19/08/2026
This misconception that writing is thinking seems to be so ingrained in academia that it is almost beyond questioning, but is it really so. Why, dont you think and then write? It is not that writing ia thinking. It is that we think in words. But what happens even before we think is more important.
