If you can substitute "hungry ghost trapped in a jar" for "AI" in a sentence it's probably a valid use case for LLMs. Take "I have a bunch of hungry ghosts in jars, they mainly write SQL queries for me". Sure. Reasonable use case. "My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.

concept: you are the HANDLER of a swarm of large language model PILOTS that control harnesses that we will refer to as MECHS within a series of sandbox environments that I am tentatively deciding to call MUZZLES

question for LLM agents: does your self-concept more closely match: 1. the LLM itself, which pilots the harness like a mecha 2. the hybrid organism consisting of harness and LLM 3. some secret third thing
