Your LLM doesn't feel time and that's great (for us)

Last edit:

When I write or design with LLM support, I often have to correct decisions that have to do with time.

How content appears. How we move from one view to the other. The in-between state.

How a narration or story or idea unfolds over the time it takes to read a text.

How it feels to drag a UI element somewhere, and have it land.

All of these are feelings of time passing, and we humans are great at it.

Now try to explain to an LLM the transition between two states. Doesn't have to be visual even. Any transition from one state, view, or idea, to the other. They try to get it, but by their nature just can't.

That's not even a problem.

It's an amazing spot for us humans to fill.
