The Crop Large Language Models Are Made Of

Friday, July 17, 2026

Good morning, Twfw. O/

Sunrise. Living witness in words on an e-ink screen... rolls on. Thanks for joining me in this exercise in OI. That's Original Intelligence if you're new here.

OI is what makes AI possible. It's the crop Large Language Models are made of.

Creative thoughts, new words for new ways of considering Life, and what Art does by design, create a novel way to understand The World.

Life is worth wondering about. A sunrise is always beautiful, what's that about?

It's a question Artificial Intelligence can't help you with, but one we each should answer for ourselves.

Why do stories and music work? Only OI can answer that.

Sure we can develop theories of how they work, but the question why can only ever be answered by the questioner.

I do my best to keep Wonder Fell from becoming a philosophic work, but we are living in an age where a practical understanding of what intelligence is about is a dire everyday human concern.

The simplest language to use for what LLMs do versus what people do is: AI or OI.

AI is mob mentality in a user-friendly software program. Some mobs, like the medical community, are a helpful bunch. But even the language of modern medicine doesn't stay modern for long.

How's it updated?

OI.

A Large Language Model is a warehouse for OI. AI is the distribution center team that gets it to the public.

So your software isn't actually thinking. When we give AI a prompt it's like ordering something from Amazon. Nothing is created only rearranged and delivered.

Intelligence is an act of creation. Something living must do it. Using AI is a trip to go shopping at The LLM-Mart: Your one-stop shop for all your OI needs.

Ultimately, we use the Original Intelligence of others to weave our own witness and stories of the world and call the tale our life...

Speaking of tales: Back to Colore.

Thanks for reading.
